Because our husbands, both medical students in their final years
of internship, were on call for extended periods, my friend and
I were lamenting the fact that we were left alone every fourth
night with our young children.
With a toddler and a newborn, Allison was especially desperate
for help on occasion. Even when her husband was home, he was
so exhausted that he never heard the children's cries at night.
But she noticed that he always heard his pager when he was
called for an emergency at the hospital.
So she did the obvious: When she needed his assistance at night,
she paged him. :idea: :11:
