		<description>I think that the father&#039;s name on the birth certificate is whatever the mother says.  They let the courts settle that much later, if ever.  I knew someone who once told me that her &quot;boyfriend&quot; was on the birth certificate for her third son but that someone else from a drunken encounter was probably the father -- don&#039;t tell Tim.

Back in 2004, a friend/protege of mine was pregnant.  One of the big stress items between Wendy and I was that we couldn&#039;t have kids.  My job was to talk this youngster out of an abortion.  I got her up to about a 50/50 point then her decision flipped back into the default decision that was already in process.  But the discussions had already been there -- If she carried it to term and we still wanted to adopt, then she would put my name on the birth certificate to simplify the adoption.

Society takes the woman&#039;s word for it.</description>

		<description>Leslie,
Thanks so much for posting.  Although hearing Kim is sick enough to be in the hospital was not good news.  It is good she is there for ongoing watch.  I had been wondering if she followed through with the tests.  Hopefully more will be done and this latest situation will get the evalutions needed. 
 
Keep us posted and let her know how much we care about her.</description>

		<description>ZL was/is a Gypsy, otherwise known as Roma. Here&#039;s an interesting article on the plight of Europe&#039;s Roma in The Economist: http://www.economist.com/world/europe/displaystory.cfm?story_id=11579339

Now that I think of it, ZL &amp; her son being of Roma background might explain why both of them are so elusive.

Thinking of you, Kim!</description>

I certainly will have you in my prayers.  I hope that the medical staff can get to the bottom of your problems and straighten them out.  We miss you Kim.
