After 14 hours of labor at
St. Mary's Hospital, midwife Nancy Fogel and
Dr. Stefano Stella determined that
Eason, at 9 cms., was in
transverse arrest and would require a cesarean delivery.
Eason Kamander was born
8 pounds 9 ounces,
22.5 inches at 1:39 AM, on August 20, 2003.
More details and pictures below:

At delivery it was discovered that the umbilical cord was wrapped around
Eason's neck three times and it was actually very fortunate that the attempt at vaginal delivery had not progressed any further.
I was present at the operation and helped remove Eason from Aviva's womb.
