81 one years ago to-day, my mother gave birth to a boy 11 pounds and 14 ozs. at home. My Dad could not afford to go to the hospital even though he was working 2 jobs! A few years ago I saw the doctors bill and it was 2 butchered hogs and six laying hens. The doctor that delivered me, my Dad and I were all born in the same house, (a few years apart :D ) A lot has happened since then!!!!!
 
Happy birthday.

Perhaps we should start asking our elders
what changes have you seen in their
lifetime.

I knew a old man from Kansas that said he
farmed with mules.

So what changes have you seen?

Happy Birthday. Wow, that is about as much as all three of ours together. My
mom says I weighted in at 10 lbs. I always tell me wife, the Dr. just held me
up by the feet and said, yup, about 10 lbs.

I remember the Dr. coming out to the farm on different occasions when I was
older and never saw him carrying a scale.
 
You have a neat story and legacy. There arent many people alive today who can lay claim to a doctor bill paid that way.
