Our previous manager use to have them all the time. This manager said only once a year unless he thinks someone is damaging the place, or the apartment is in a dangerous situation.<br /><br />MarilynNew York State Of Mindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079961105585950354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-14640463718741738832015-09-21T19:40:40.510-04:002015-09-21T19:40:40.510-04:00Elmer is so good in his writing and his advice to ...Elmer is so good in his writing and his advice to John. My sons are 44 & 46 and back then, there was no option for fathers to be present for babies birth. Good for Elmer being with Anna for all their children. I hope John can do that for Sarah, especially if that is her desire. I keep you in my thoughts and prayers, Marilyn. At Griefshare.Org you could sign up for a daily email, that may be helpful to you. Kind of like a daily devotional but the subject is about grieving.

He is a smart man! There's just something different about fatherhood when they see the little ones take their first breaths and scream bloody murder. It's just my opinion, but I think as anxious as Sarah and John are about the first birth, the hospital setting is the right choice. Sarah will have a lot more confidence after this and will probably deliver the second beautifully at home. No matter, hospitals turn mothers loose after the first day if there are no complications. Now my delicate question for Elmer, Anna or Jean is this: Would they allow some anesthesia or pain killers during/after the birth? Not all of this are cut out for natural birth. (I've done both)<br />Marilyn: Hope you are well and getting over not only the death of your brother but also the family not contacting you in a timely matter. I lost a dear aunt and my father didn't tell me until months later. That's a different story though, Daddy is old (94).<br />Carol in SCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-73131674218634992982015-09-21T12:02:20.852-04:002015-09-21T12:02:20.852-04:00Good Morning Ruth,

I hope it turns out a good experience for John and Sarah, it seems the hospital is really accommodating and a good fit for them.<br /><br />All the best to you and your family,<br />RuthAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4005870656044436056.post-53445075037515446122015-09-21T11:25:41.338-04:002015-09-21T11:25:41.338-04:00Good Morning Carol,

He has a way with words that makes you feel that he is your own father. I'm glad that Sarah and John took the opportunity to visit the hospital. Elmer is right, it takes two. It was good that John took his advice and went with Sarah.
