Anne_p and Mirl, they are both very eerie in their coincidences.

I want to clarify my earlier post.

My ancestral grandmothers both died from complications of childbirth ( not in childbirth).
Each died a few days after giving birth.

Although my g grandfather and grandfather ( father and son) did have birthdays a few days apart.
they were both born at the end of Nov 1867 and 1890 respectively.
They were not born the day of their mothers deaths ( 3 Dec )

That would just be waaaay too spooky !

Hi anne_p

The strange thing is here it all happened on the 3rd December  :o

In my calendar I always look out for the 12th Dec.

1997 on that date my son ran into a moving car . He was perfectly fine, but gave me a scare.
The following year on the 12 Dec. my OH fell and broke his wrist.
12 Dec. 1999 I walked into a lamppost and ended up looking like I had an egg stuck on my forehead  ;D

First two just a coincidence...the last one - I should have just looked where I was going, me thinks  :D ;D
