Midnight in the garden of good and evil lady chablis

Hes a veteran politician in that, and back in the years when I was reporting and covering his administration, we got used to Jerry Brown whistle stops. He likes to get out and do that. He doesnt do a lot of the security trappings, he likes to travel around, he likes to talk to a lot of people. He does it well. And this is this is Jerry Brown at his prime, going out and taking that fight to the people. Whether he can get results out of it is another problem.

PERSONAL HEALTH; After Ending Pregnancy, Ripples of Pain Parents who have experienced the joy of bringing a healthy child into the world can hardly imagine the pain of losing a baby, even one not close to being born. I have a friend who suffered three miscarriages, another whose baby died in utero when she was eight midnight in the garden of good and evil lady chablis pregnant and a third whose baby was alive at the start of labor but was stillborn. The pain that accompanies such losses is shared by those who feel compelled to terminate wanted pregnancies after learning through amniocentesis that the fetus is seriously abnormal. Last Christmas, relatives of mine, who had been so excited about being pregnant that they framed their first sonogram photos, learned from amniocentesis at 17 weeks that their unborn child had multiple severe abnormalities. They decided to end the pregnancy. In an attempt to assuage the pain of losing a much-wanted baby they called Hope, the couple held a memorial service. The mother wrote: It was our ignorance for believing that all pregnancies led to a healthy baby. It was my arrogance for believing that since I had the best medical care, took prenatal vitamins even before and during my pregnancy, never took drugs, never smoked cigarettes and drank about half a glass of wine a year, that our baby would be safe. We wanted her and longed for her so badly that it physically hurt. Why couldnt I just donate an arm or a leg? I couldnt give her up. Hope taught me how it is to feel a mothers love. It is the sweetest love of all. Someday, we will try again because we have known the joy of creating and carrying a life inside us. The gift of carrying this miracle is worth the risk of pain. The families and friends of people who have been through this experience often fail to appreciate the intense emotions it evokes, and typically say well-meaning but inappropriate things like, Youll get pregnant again. This is like telling a widow Youll marry again. Researchers have reported that many couples experience serious psychological consequences after such a pregnancy, including marital conflict, grief, anger, guilt and a strong need for counseling and support. Some are reluctant to attempt another pregnancy and, when one does occur, it can be accompanied by further pain. In the May/June issue of The Journal of Obstetric, Gynecologic and Neonatal Nursing, Dr. Pam Rillstone and Dr. Sally A. Hutchinson report that once parents have faced the unimaginable in their previous pregnancy, subsequent pregnancies are not full of joy but instead become racked with fear and uncertainty. Rillstone, an assistant professor at Jacksonville University School of Nursing, and Dr. Hutchinson, a nursing professor at the University of Florida Health Science Center in Jacksonville, interviewed 15 women and 9 partners experiencing a pregnancy after ending a previous one that was abnormal. The anguish these parents suffered after the lost pregnancy resurfaced during the later one, they found.
