## Resource

When Trent Richardson’s son Archie was born prematurely and spent months in the NICU, he channeled his raw emotions into a song called “Promise You Now,” connecting with other parents who’ve faced traumatic births. Meanwhile, OB-GYN Dr. Alka Kothari is pushing for systemic change—highlighting how fathers are often overlooked in perinatal care despite being equally affected by birth complications. Her research champions peer support networks and calls for healthcare systems to include dads in mental health and educational resources. Trent’s music has sparked global resonance among NICU families, while Archie, now thriving with a rare diagnosis, symbolizes resilience. As Father’s Day nears, Trent reflects on gratitude—for Gabby, the medical team, and the power of community in healing.
