Goodbye Internet

It had been one month.
One month since you got notified at the hospital.
One month since he got into that car to come and be with you as you gave birth to your baby boy.
One month since Dan died, and you became a single mother.
You almost gave up in labor when you overheard the nurse tell the doctor. The doctor had given you a false smile.
"Your husband will be here soon, but we need to start Mrs. Howell."
I wanted to end it there, but I thought about how excited Dan had been to be becoming a father. How happy Phil was to become the godfather. Phil would be here soon, he would be there. Now the two of you sat together while the baby, Dan, slept.
"Phil. I can't-" You choked and he held you.
"We can do this. It's what he would want. For little Dan at least."
"I just want him back. I can't even walk in the hallway because this would be the time when he would be having one of his existential crises. Dan's never going to know his father."
"Yeah he will. Look." Phil brought over the laptop and played Dan's first YouTube video. We laughed and cried. Neither of us had announced Dan's death, it would make it too real.
"I'm going to do it. I'll post a video on his channel."
"Are you sure?"
"They need to know."
"I'll watch over little Dan then."
"Can you edit it?"
"Yeah."
So I went to our-my room. We had moved to a bigger flat because we couldn't abandon Phil, but we had to make room for the baby. I pulled out Dan's camera and set everything up then say on the bed. The camera on and filming. How do I even start this?
"Um, hi. I know this isn't what you were expecting. Dan can't be here right now, but the baby is good and healthy and we named him Dan. Um, Dan won't be coming back-" You began to choke up, "He had been coming to the hospital when I had gone into labor..." I felt like I was suffocating, it was too real, "and he got into an accident. Dan-Dan's passed away." You stopped and cried for a little while. You straitened up and looked at the camera, "I thought you Danosaurs should know. So, goodbye internet." You waved and shut off the camera, giving it to Phil and taking over on feeding little Dan.
"You'll be great, just like your dad." You kissed little Dan's head.
