New Baby
>An expectant couple were soon to have their first child. Their doctor >told them of a new invention to relieve the mother's pain during >childbirth. This invention could be attached to the mother and it would >transfer the pain she experienced to the baby's father. > > >The couple talked it over and the husband was anxious to help his wife >with her delivery. When the blessed time came, they opted to use the new >invention. It was strapped to the mother and the dial was set at 1. > > >With the mother's contraction, the husband felt no pain. He asked that >the dial be adjusted to 3. With the next contractions, the mother felt >less pain and the husband tolerated the experience well. > > >The husband, feeling courageous and noble, asked that the dial be turned >to 100%. The nurse did so and the mother completed the entire labor and >delivery with no pain. The husband did not feel any pain either, and was >certain that women had over-rated their plight in childbirth. > > >A few days later the happy new family returned home from the hospital. >They were shocked as they drove into their driveway to see the mailman >lying dead on the front porch. |
