BTW, Gracie, comfort purrs to all at your place at loss of your MIL. Hope DH
is a little better.
But, are you kidding, 24 hrs? She had her baby @ 1:15 a.m.
yesterday.....when I called and talked to son last night (8-ish their time)
she and baby were home! And the hospital has all these fancy rooms like the
one she had, where you labor, deliver, and recover, with DH welcome for all,
right in same room the whole time.
They live a few doors from the hospital so I'd call that "stroll-by" and not
"drive-by" delivery.
