Welcome back!
Today as I was driving along the streets of much-polluted beloved Beijing, a thought occured to me. There as supposed to be miracles and wonders almost every day. Some of those wonders are not very significant to be recognized by many as special. Yet some are special indeed. Like this one in Canada:
A 35-year-old Canadian woman has given birth to rare identical quadruplets doctors reported Thursday.
Karen Jepp of Calgary, Alberta, delivered Autumn, Brooke, Calissa and Dahlia by Caesarian section Sunday afternoon at Benefis Healthcare hospital in Great Falls, Mont. The four girls were breathing without ventilators and listed in good condition Thursday.
The babies were born about two months early and were conceived without fertility drugs. They weighed between 2.6 pounds and 2.15 pounds.
"This is a very big medical event," One unnamed doctor said. "Identical quadruplets are extremely rare". Scientists have calculated the chances of giving birth to identical quadruplets to be about one in 13 million.
The last reported quadruplets were born in April 2006 to a 26-year-old Indian woman.
Wow! Now that could be a wonder!
Later...
