Doc Really Isn't Equipped To Handle Childbirth. Maybe Isaac And Gopher Can Help
-
You'd assume that if you're pregnant but not due for several months, it would be safe to go on a cruise. That's why this woman was on a cruise ship in the Caribbean when, suddenly, she went into labor and gave birth to a very premature 1-1/2 pound baby. The description of how the ship's crew handled it will make you cringe, however. The first told her that she couldn't give birth because they were too far from port, then they wouldn't show her the baby after it was born. The latter might be because the baby was not in good shape, and they had to race to get to the port in Puerto Rico to get medical attention, because they were losing the battle to save the baby. But they made it, the child is recovering, and all's well that ends well. (Minneapolis Star-Tribune)
