“Ok, Mrs. Griffard, you’re going to have this baby soon,” said the nurse as she moved around the bed and pushed back the sheets.
“This really hurts!” Mom said. “When is the doctor going to put me out?”
“Oh no, we don’t do that anymore.”
“What do you mean? I was put out for my other four!”
“No, you’ll have to help push this baby out.”
“You gotta be kidding. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! This hurts! Ow, ow, ow! I feel like I’m going to be split apart! This is painful!”
And that’s how I came into the world 44 years ago.
