Lucky me - the 5th sentence had no real names in it!
I'm noy usually a reader, but I grabbed my "Everything Pregnancy Book" next to my bed and here goes...
"Vivid and emotionally powerful dreams are very typical during pregnancy and immediately after delivery."
Yikes...this is from the 4th month boy I am glad I'm not back there...blah...
À un moment, mon camarade Samson s'est arrêté de marcher, et avant que j'aie pu voir quoi que ce soit, j'ai entendu la détonation d'un fusil et Samson est tombé d'un coup, comme si on lui avait fauché les jambes.
