Roberto D'Angelo + Francesca Fedeli: In our baby's illness, a life lesson

Roberto D'Angelo and Francesca Fedeli thought their baby boy Mario was healthy -- until at 10 days old, they discovered he'd had a perinatal stroke. With Mario unable to control the left side of his body, they grappled with tough questions: Would he be "normal?" Could he live a full life? The poignant story of parents facing their fears -- and how they turned them around.
