re: #790 John Neverbend

My first was born in England where the husband is allowed within 500 miles when the epidural is administered. In fact, the anaesthetist asked for my assistance, which I gave by holding my wife steady as she lay on her side and had a needle about the width of a chicken baster inserted into her spine.

Oh, I was right there at “ground zero”. It’s not like the movies, is it? Where you have a divider or curtain of sorts keeping you focused on helping the dear women breathe?
