Triplets at Local Hospital

While visiting the largest hospital in Togo - CHU with some of our anaesthesia team members, we were asked if we wish to observe a c-section.  We agreed.  The mother came in and was so extended, they thought maybe twins, though as the deliveries happened - the doctor raised 3 fingers - triplets.  Not a very common occurance at the hospital.  This was my first c-section to observe and then to have three healthy babies - what an amazing time.  The parents - Koamivi and Amivi are doing well.  She gave birth and named their children:  Elohne. 2.8 kg.    Erine 2.7 kg.    Eric 2.7 kg.
