Funny, I had this in my memories of our family. It is the bill from the hospital in Beckley, West Virginia from Pat's birth. Check out the final total. $ 123.30 !
Oh, those were the days, eh? And they were in the hospital for 12 days.
Anyhoo, thought this was fun to see.

Oh, not sure why there was a 10% discount. Hmmm. :)

Golly Mammy spent ten days recovering from Pat's birth. In those days they seemed to be kinder to women. Now some don't even get to spend the night when they give birth.
ReplyDeleteIt should be a celebration and also a special time for the mother especially if she has other children at home. Time to bond, and recover from the birth and to sleep when she can because it will be a few years before that happens again. It is great to prove you can do anything as a woman but on the other hand it is wonderful to be treated as special and kindly.
