Mark, even with your silly puns, asides and songs...this is a lovely and touching story...my birthday is also 12- 2 (just a few years older, however, than your daughter)... I have not been writing...I am stalled trying to change my memoir to fiction...no other way to publish...too much liability the other way. I did re-up on fanStory so I could check-in on you and a few others,...who knows, I might get a whim now and then to write, but, for now, I am tutoring several students, playing tons of tennis, and enjoying my grand kids. Happy thanksgiving.

Thanks Maggie - it was actually 20 years ago today that the said incident took place - single most memorable day of my life.
I didn't realize that there were liability issues in publishing a memoir - I wonder how the celebrities get away with it. Anyway, it's very good and I'm sure the quality will still come through in a fictionalized version.

Truth is a defense, but really don't want to be sued. By the ex.

Laughing my ass off again! Childbirth stories are always great comedic fodder, and this is no exception.
Highlights:
Mike Didtka.
'You did this to me.'
'Tough it out, suck it up, play like a champion.'
'You can sing it to your next wife.'
'Honduran women don't have to fill out forms.'
'I HEARD THAT!'
'Next time (the doc) comes in, if he says I'm still at 2 cm, you have to kill him.'
Once again, an amazingly funny story. You rock the funny stories.
Rock on!

Thanks Michael. Never sure whether or not to label these as fiction or non-fiction as they are mostly true, but I do take a few liberties (e.g. Maggie did threaten divorce if I sang 'Havin' My Baby', but I didn't actually raise the bedpan over the doctor's head). In any case, I'm glad you get a laugh out of them, and I always appreciate your comments.
