My cousin has been through two miscarriages and has had to resign herself to the idea that she might not be able to have children. I think that represents a lot of peoples' worst fears. I'm just pleased that infant mortality isn't the sort of common, everyday occurance it used to be before the all the advances that were made in healthcare.
That made enlightening reading. I never figured so many women had to deal with miscarriages.

Didn't he once accidentally sneer his face off?
