His name is what automatically comes to mind when anyone in the clan is in need. "Might as well," others say, because Bobbie cannot have a "normal" family to support anyway so he should support those who do. He is often asked to decide on complex issues involving several competing interests because his track record in fairness is phenomenal. He has cultivated work that he loves and is passionate about with his most interesting and novel twist in looking at things.

"I’m doing it," is my usual reply on a Sunday, when I’m clearly busy lying in bed, reading or strumming a guitar. Doing pretty much nothing makes most males perfectly happy.

But ask a woman – say, your wife – the same question and you’ll get a recitation that lasts half an hour. Women never run out of creative ideas to fill your time.

The baby lay critically ill in the hospital, fighting to breathe. He had pneumonia, which made staying alive a struggle for his 8-month-old body. Doctors, nurses, and his family fought to save this weak baby boy.

Some people say he should never have made it to 8 months of age. Others say this precious child should not have been allowed to be born, or that he should have been left to die after he was born.
