This is a picture of Marc's dad, the English Department Head at Texas A&M, giving a speech to the pre-med students about the interaction of literature and medicine. At the end, he threw up a picture of Alex to talk about the humanitirian interaction between doctors, and also caring moments spent between the patient and the patitet's care givers. You had to be there. It gave me a lump in my throat.

Alex was born at 32 weeks due to a "placenta previa" which means the placenta fails to move up and along the side wall. Blah blah blah, too much than anyone wanted to hear. Yaydayda...everything turned out fine.
