Chapter 19 - The Tuttlehills & Makoo
Bertha had the cutest baby bump when she and Mac tied the knot on Valentine's Day. Everyone was there, and we all had a grand time. And everyone let her know that the cooking was not as good as hers. I think that made her feel better than anything.
Then the babies started coming. First with Bertha, who's little girl, Elspeth Aaliyah MacGregor came into this world the middle of May, named for her two grandmothers. They'd call her Ellie and so would everyone else.
Next was Linnie, who early in June brought forth Mark Lawrence, Jr. a very healthy 22 inches and almost ten pounds of him. Poor Linnie was a wreck. She told me she thought she blew out her vagina. I assured her it would be just fine in time. I, for one, will go through no such thing. My lady bits will be just fine. And when it comes time for me to get back to business, Duane Royce ain't gonna know what hit him.
Time marches on and invariable the time came for me to lie on the table and have the two creatures within extracted from me. And so it was, on June Twenty-Second, Twenty-Fifty-Five, little Duane Royce, Jr. joined the family, followed soon thereafter by Dina Divine, always to be known as "Diva' his little sister, for reasons that will become more obvious as they march toward puberty. Both children hung in there with me during the 'Golden Hour.' So did Duane. He was with me and held my hand through the entire operation. He never took his eyes off me and he told me he loved me a zillion times.
No mate could have been more cooperative. If he ever thought I wanted or needed something he was on it immediately. I stayed in the hospital for five days. Dr. Rubin wanted to pay close attention and catch any complications before they became a big deal. She didn't release me until I promised her I would bring in a nurse on a part time basis for a couple of months. She wanted me on bedrest for six to eight weeks and she was not messing around. A nurse certainly would be a helpful thing. So, I contacted one of my friends at West Chester's College of Nursing and asked if they had any post practicum students who were pedes oriented and were looking for work. She promised to get back to me. That's when I met Rebecca. Becca to her friends. She was in the last year of her BSN program and was set to graduate in June. Her Curriculum Vitae was very impressive. As well as doing charitable work since the age of twelve, she started a program amongst middle schoolers teaching first aid. She also worked part time through most of college, mostly in hospitals as a nursing assistant, and after receiving her Associates and her RN as a substitute nurse in various departments. But she had one goal in nursing and that was to be a pediatric nurse. She seemed perfect for the job. So, I sent Caroline out to pick her up at her little apartment in West Chester, a neighborhood that was mostly college students and some recent grads, and bring her to the hospital to meet me.
I was between a feeding and a nap when Becca came to see me. She was pretty and very sweet. She had kind eyes. The kind of eyes you want looking at your child. She looked over at a picture I had on the side table of Holly and the kids and I.
"You have a most unusual family. Your children are all beautiful. Where's the father?"
"He came into the picture after that shot was taken."
"So you have five children?
"Six if you include Celeste, Holly's daughter. And if you include Bertha in our family, which we absolutely do, that's seven children in this house. Plus the ones who are in and out."
"Well, for the first week or so that I am with you there will be no in and out without my say so. There's always a lot going around and there is no need risking infection."
"I like the way you think, Becca. When can you start?"
"There's nothing from stopping me from doing it right now. I'll be happy to help with the little ones while you are here at the hospital and then the day before you go home I will help set up the accommodations for the twins. The only monkey wrench in the works is that I have two classes I must attend in person and a final practicum I have to do a half day on Saturdays. Oddly enough it's here at Paoli Memorial, and it's in Pedes for my certification as a Pediatric Nurse."
Duane walked in the door and I immediately introduced them.
"Becca Lynch, this is Duane Royce, the father of my children. At least these two. Duane, this is our new nurse. I didn't ask you what you do for transportation, Becca."
"I have an old '42 Chevy. It jumps and bumps but it gets me where I need to go."
"Well, we'll see what we can do about that. Duane, who's around?"
"Everyone is around, but they won't let anyone near you or the baby unless they have medical clearance and Dr. Rubin hasn't given that to anyone but you me and the staff. Becca got special dispensation because she both did her nursing practicum here and she is presently completing a certification here. I think you've chosen wisely, but you're gonna have to be patient. You've got a long healing process ahead of you and lots of people who want to support you. But
Dammit
, be patient."
"He's
right
Miss Todd. You know it too. Mine is not the only CV that's been read recently. You've got a pretty impressive one yourself. Including delivering a couple of babies, including your housekeepers."
"Yeah, that was something. Probably the greatest thing I ever did in medicine."
"So, it is true? At seven months pregnant you delivered your housekeeper's baby at her home because she couldn't get to the hospital on time."
