General information.
Editorial. Finally November 16 th. at 12:25 UT (13:25 local) our son
at 3.786 Kg (not MHz ;-) no 80 m. DX here) and 52 cm. was born (by
surgical procedure), except for a few minor complications (to low
blod sugar) everything was ok. Both mother and child are fine now -
and the father is slowly starting to relax ;-)
I feel gratefull to the whole crew at Odense University Hospital's D5
and H6 wards, the ten different midwifes we have met during our stay,
one of them a HAM, Jetta OZ9ABY. Special thanks to our birth fysisian
Ulla Darling Pedersen, who brought our son into the world.
As my XYL (OZDR2446) still is hospitalised with our newborn. I still
expect fluctuations around the bulletin, it will be issued, but with
up to a couple of days divergence from the normal Saturday evening.
Especially the Stop Press page at www.qsl.net/oz6om/ will be affected.
Here will be a link to an alternative dayly "50 MHz news" by SM7AED.
I hope You will have understaning for this inconvinience. vy 73 OZ6OM.
