[blparent] Screeching!

[Barbara Hammel]

Of course my kids are special needs kids but they've been doing it for the 
past three years.  I'm glad you all go through that baby stage to have some 
understanding of what some of us endure for a lifetime.

It is much nicer when they screech in happiness though.  I had one that 
screamed in agony for seven months before we discovered he had hernias. 
Poor thing.  Actually he incessantly made sounds equivalent to those that 
come forth from a donkey.  He'd start high and come down like he could have 
been saying hee haw.  Kind of cute but after one day it was too much.

I hope she'll get out of it soon.
Barbara
