A Happy Update (and correction):

>probably the biggest event of the week comes on Thursday
>(sorry Charity, you got bumped) when Paula Bickom gives birth to David
>and Paula Bickom's first child.  The doctors are concerned about the

>momma a little early.  Your prayers and concerns, I am sure, are
>appreciated.

(a) Correction: the *placenta* was in the wrong place, not the
umbilicial cord.  Sorry for the misinformation.

(b) The placenta is now in the right place!!!  They dont' have to
unzip momma early!!!  What great news!  We now have another three
weeks of just David and Paula.  (I wonder how momma feels about that!)
And they get to use all that Lamahze training.  (I wonder how poppa
feels about that!)

Thank you for your (literally worldwide) prayers and concerns.

Mark
