It was a heartbreaking, as many plans had already been made from the time they found they were expecting.
However, Paul's early appearance was to have far more influence on this couple than any one could possibly expect …….Baby Paul's birth actually saved his father's life.
Jim was in The U S Coast Guard awaiting over seas orders, when he got the call the baby was coming, and was granted emergency leave to attend the early complicated birth, but was due back in New York to leave on a certain ship.
