To: MSersLife Sent: Mon, November 29, 2010 7:45:20 PMSubject: Re: / for Akiba & group, smallness My mother had no real awareness that she was pregnant--she was 37--and just assumed that shehad gone into menopause--until her OB/GYN decided that if his hunch was right (this was 1937),that one X-Ray late in a pregnancy would not makea huge difference. There I was, along with the skeletal remains of my identical twin sister who had, apparently, succumbed early in the pregnancy. As it happened, my mother went into premature labor and itwas decided, based on the X-Ray, that I would be"viable," as they say in the medical would. True.I was born 2.5 months early, weighing a hefty 2.5+ lbs.I was 13" long. The rest is history. My mother calledme "Toby," and my father, as I was the youngest of six,addressed me as "Kid!" The "Toby" was a play on "ToBE or NOT to BE," and my father had my mother dropthat one. So, by the time I was about 3.5 years old, mymother called me "Honey," and my father always addressedme as "Kid!" -- except in letters, where they actually usedthe first name that they had given me.I think that I am much taller than Akiba; we are not discussing my current weight--though I have lost a lot--asI was always very thin until I had my first joint replacementin 1994--followed by three others, and one repair surgeryto my left knee. I think this is called the "retired athletesyndrome." I am about 30 lbs overweight, but no one, noteven my doctors believe it; I am about 5' 9" tall and shrinking.I think that "gumdrop" is a lot cuter than "Toby" or even "Honey"or "Kid!" -- though my mother did say that she did not know whatshe would have done with two of me!Love to you, Akiba, and to Sharon and to all here with us,n, who "always has been rushing to get to the head of the line",according to my next brother up from me in age. . . .

Guest guest Posted November 30, 2010 Report Share Posted November 30, 2010 Having a nickname, given by parents, isn't what it's cracked up to be.. LOL.. When my mother called me "Lucy"..

Never knew exactly why she picked "Lucy" though.. unless it had some to do with the "I Love Lucy" television show... and it was supposed to come out in a Rick o tone of voice maybe? But when I was in trouble was the only time I heard that nickname.. from her.. Dad detested nicknames.. so didn't get one from him.. And I'll take the one my uncle had for me to da grave.. LOL..
