Not as wise as mother. She was kind enough to bring me forth 76 years ago. On the officers’ side of the military hospital while the German sub U-505 passed into the harbor with a broom upside down and mother watched it go by the little island. Those were the days when the women were forced to take castor oil cocktails and the babies were stuffed into drawers because the hospital couldn’t handle the number of war baby births. Loved listening to mother’s stories.
