Traumatic birth

My poor cousin had a traumatic time giving birth to her baby girl. Her hips were not expanding enough to naturally push her out all the way and she was stuck too far out to push her back in to do a c-section. Mom said they sucked the baby girl out. She was all blue and paralyzed on one side upon birth. This was last week. This week the baby is fine and tests all give the green light to go home soon, if not already. My poor cousin needed lots of rest after her ordeal. My aunt and uncle went over to see the baby and my cousin. That's why we are not hearing this until now.

The little girl was 5 lbs. 2 oz. Mom thinks they gave her an Arabic name she can't pronounce cause he is from Lebanon, Jo-something. Then again Mom couldn't figure out how to pronounce Daphne either. We who grew up with Scooby-Do can pronounce Daphne correctly. Daphne also comes from Greek mythology. So anyway, Congrats to the new parents. I have to go buy a card now. It snowed last night on our first day of spring so I'll go buy it tomorrow. Today I stay inside and drink cocoa. Post later. Bye!
