Baby delivered safely in gridlock on Island Hwy. north of Nanaimo
PARKSVILLE — A traffic jam which has delayed thousands of people since Thursday, couldn’t delay the miracle of life.
Kyle and Kelsey Aplin knew their baby would come soon, with Kelsey experiencing contractions for several hours overnight on Friday, Nov. 19.
What was unexpected was where little Rylie Jayne would enter the world.
“We called the hospital at 10 a.m. and asked if we should come because of the traffic,” Kyle told NanaimoNewsNOW. “They said we should head out. We got just past Triple O’s and she couldn’t really bare it anymore so we called the ambulance.”
