Supervisor saves baby from hotel room toilet

The only surprise we want to find in our hotel room is a mint on the pillow.

Cathy Masic couldn’t believe what she saw when she ran into the second-floor hotel room in Niagara Falls on Saturday morning.

In that room stood Stacy Lay, one of the housekeepers Masic supervises, speechless and hemorrhaging, pointing to the toilet.

There, Masic saw, was the baby that Lay had just given birth to, lying on his side, purple and motionless.

Masic had been told moments before that the 20-year-old Lay had given birth in a toilet. The quiet, hard-working housekeeper had never told anyone she was pregnant, although her bulging belly had led some co-workers to wonder.

When Masic ran into the hotel room, she was expecting to find a tiny fetus, maybe three months along. The baby in the toilet, though, appeared full-term, she said.

The infant’s health has been stabilized, and he is currently on a breathing machine.
