[Magdalen] new ways to deliver baby / was-->Re: Prayer request for a safe...

[Sibyl Smirl]

Pretty good for a dermatologist, all right!

The DO who delivered my baby, complete with prenatal care and 
everything, was very proud of the several thousand babies he had 
delivered in his career.  But then he had to stop doing it 
(deliberately, at least) because the malpractice insurance rates got way 
too high for him.

Did you know that Dr. Ben Carson, a brain surgeon, delivered his second 
son by accident?  They had the arrangements all made to go to the 
hospital when it was time, the obstetrician knew, of course, that the 
baby was going to be coming "soon", grandma was sleeping in the house 
with them so she could take care of the older boy while they were gone. 
  But #2 son had other ideas for the best laid plans.  Mrs Carson woke 
up in the double bed with him when the baby was already coming.  She 
nudged her husband hard, woke him with a bit of difficulty, and while he 
was on the phone with the hospital, and simultaneously putting his pants 
on, he also almost literally "caught" the baby.  Then they had to 
ransack the house for something to clamp the cord something close to 
properly, the conscious and talking and thinking missus giving 
directions on where to look.  (Grandma had woken up during this). Then 
mother and baby were transported to the hospital in an ambulance for her 
obstetrician to do all the necessary checks and tests, etc.

The things that you run into when reading biographies related to politics!
