I, however, am one of those weird people that LOVE blood, needles, bodies, and cutting (as noted by the fact I took a phlebotomy class and can actually draw my own blood now, my two years as an anatomy TA, etc.) I was nervous that I would actually feel light-headed and need to sit but I felt awesome. But I'm a freak and loved every minute of it. Good for you for facing your fear for someone else's sake. If there was a pregnant lady needing assistance on the roof of a building or in an elevator, I would not be able to help her out.<br /><br />You can come to my home birth. There won't be any needles, hopefully.Caitlin Carrollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18417848115673458546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1476570074323535641.post-11364649520699162342009-07-16T10:24:37.433-07:002009-07-16T10:24:37.433-07:00the most difficult part for me is the argentine tr...the most difficult part for me is the argentine translator making you look the fool.darciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10057730929868681294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1476570074323535641.post-4583693147144406432009-07-15T09:56:36.126-07:002009-07-15T09:56:36.126-07:00I had to come back and read it again, Ash...sorry....I had to come back and read it again, Ash...sorry. I just wanted to add that my hilarity at your sad/humorous story was mostly made so because I, too, am a fainter. My FIRST experience of fainting was in a hot 7th grade science class during sex education....Grandma laughed -- chortled -- giggled over that one once she helped dry my tears of mortification...shellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13502634959386998985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1476570074323535641.post-34473286546926386392009-07-15T07:43:33.520-07:002009-07-15T07:43:33.520-07:00Beautiful story!

The minute I read this I immediately thought this would be Grandma's favorite story, that we would have laughed together so hard we'd cry -- and that Grandpa would be feeling so sympathetic and defensive for you. BWAHAHAHA! By the way, I'm also proud of you........................ BWAHAHAHA!
