"        Rob and Erin Marshall wanted to chronicle and celebrate the 244 days they waited for their first child. So they took a one-second video every day during Erin&amp;#039;s pregnancy. The clips show them enjoying Cincinnati&amp;#039;s sights, traveling to Chicago, and visiting friends and family.  But seven months into Erin&amp;#039;s pregnancy, life threw the couple a major curveball. Doctors discovered their unborn son had a congenital heart defect. The couple almost stopped filming, but instead, decided to document their doctors&amp;#039; efforts to save baby Alexander. The cheerful complilation becomes a tear-jerking story of illness and recovery. The video&amp;#039;s end shows little Alexander at three different medical centers undergoing treatments and, ultimately, an open-heart surgery that took seven hours. Fortunately, Alexander is going to be just fine. &amp;quot;His prognosis is he can lead a normal life,&amp;quot; Erin told the Cincinnati Business Courier. &amp;quot;He can&amp;#039;t play football, but he&amp;#039;ll be a normal, healthy boy.&amp;quot;     @LevesterJohnson Again, great time with Butler folks at the Maui Invitational. Here&amp;#039;s a picture of Alexander today! pic.twitter.com/kgyv3UhB6k \u2014 Rob Marshall (@rob_marsha11) July 23, 2014    [Via Huffington Post]  Related:These Photoshopped Pictures of a Newborn Are Truly Moving&amp;quot;My Husband and I Made it Our Life&amp;#039;s Work to Heal Our Daughter&amp;quot;Vintage-Inspired Photography Makes For One Impressive Family Album "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
