-- [ From: Nancy Coulter * EMC.Ver #2.10P ] --

When my husband and I were graduate students at Utah State University
22 years ago our first child was born at the local LDS (Latter Day
Saints) Hospital.  We were far from home and knew few people in Logan
but the notice of the birth was printed in the local newspaper.  The
first 2 weeks my son Garrett and I were  home from the hospital the
local church group got together and brought us casseroles every night.
Garrett, of course had mother's milk, but my husband Dean and I enjoyed
the hot meals.  I will never forget the warmth and caring of those
women to a stranger in their midst. We weren't members of their church
or their community but they knew the universal needs of a new mother
and her family.
