And if you believe that I have a bridge..

9 months with an inflamed gallbladder would not be bearable.

And, evidently, a quack for a doctor.

“The mistake was understandable. It inflamed at one point up to 8 lbs, 9 oz.”

What’re you gonna name it?

GOOD !! One less kid that has to ingest second hand smoke !!!! And from the day he was born !!

“Blue eyed, or brown? 10 fingers and toes?”

Is that a teddy mouse?

According to my mom’s family doctor, that’s what I was. He refused to believe she was pregnant so it must be a gallstone. She switched doctors and here I am. That doctor called me his little gallstone for the rest of his life.

The bear is for himself. He always wanted it.

Ironically, when my ex was pregnant (40 years ago), she had an inflamed gallbladder, fortunately she had a very good surgeon and our son was born 6 months later.

She’ll love a stuffed rat to make her feel better!!!

Good thing. That mouse would scare any newborn

YIKES! The doctors there haven’t PRACTICED medicine enough!

That’s an unhappy-looking teddy bear.
