Garrett -- you got it. # 1 is the lie.
#2 My mom was pregnant ten times total (that they knew of), gave birth to three children, and had seven miscarriages. Had they lived, I would have had two older brothers, Andrew and Philip. Both died shortly after birth.
#3 I was a three-month preemie who was diagnosed with hyaline membrane disease, the same disease that took the life of newborn Patrick Kennedy, son of John and Jackie. The lungs of a newborn infant with hyaline membrane disease are not fully developed and lack the proper amount of surfactant to reopen the alveoli after a baby breathes out. The collapsed air sacs cause the baby to go into respiratory arrest and die, even when placed on a ventilator with a breathing tube. Death usually results within minutes after birth.
I was one of the first test cases in which bovine (cow) surfactant was introduced into the lungs as a substitute for my own lack of natural surfactant. After my lungs had matured a bit and I was clearly able to breathe on my own, the neonatologist advised my mom of two things to push on me in my older years -- make me swim and never let me smoke. She did both.

Have had that problem on occasion at the Games Forum...as I'm sure others who frequent that forum have, too.

That happened when the servers were switched over when Dr. Oliver supplied the space. That was the day that SOME of the posts on that Sunday were lost, and due to some strange gremlin, that occurred on the threads (including my old climatological thread, which I no longer have been updating) that had posts posted on that Sunday during the switchover.
