A. I am a mother of identical, mirror-
image boys — David and John. No one but me can tell
them apart. I am constantly amazed at how close they are. Once when they were babies
David was ill, but it was John who began crying wildly. I tried to calm John first since
nothing was wrong with him. But he only cried louder. Finally I gave some medicine to
David — who really was unwell. As soon as John
sensed his brother felt better, he
immediately settled to sleep.
B. The 12 year old was playing near the Platte River in North Bend, Nebraska. The river was
high and as the boy stepped in, the current pushed his legs away. He floated off,
spinning in the powerful current. At the last possible moment before the rapids, his yells
were heard by his dog.
It jumped in, reached the boy and towed him ashore. Another
second and the boy would have been swept away to certain death.

“Who do you think you are” is one of my favourite TV programs. Each episode
researches the family history of a celebrity, back into the mists of time. In the UK there
are good records of births, marriages and deaths going back hundreds of-years. One of
the best episodes was on Boris Johnson, the Mayor of London. He was thrilled when he
discovered he was directly related to King George II.
