his accomplishments, he didn t use democrats to pass any of it. it s absolutely ridiculous. all right. shutdown talk. let s now turn to ms. frustrated, liz winsted. i can t believe you re booking me on your show. i need whiskey. you look at these two goons. and stop comparing them to the crazies. it s like they re like raydon in your basement, you don t smell them but your house could blow up. instead of my house is on fire bachmann types. it s like sophie s choice. the government is shut down, the good news is these people aren t destroying it anymore. if you get walker or chris christie, it s the government is open and their horrible policies get put through. what do you do? right. joan? you scared me by saying you believe we re headed to default. you rattled me. i ve got to say, ed. i can t argue with you. but you know, i am very concerned. and why like this talk about a six-week, you know, extension as some kind of compromise.
taylor on her newborn son, braydon. six people with a bond that will last the rest of their lives. as the tornado approached town, shayla taylor was in labor on the second floor of the medical center. she was dilated, going through contractions she had an epidural anesthesia, which meant it numbed her enough she couldn t walk. the staff moved her to the hallway as the tornado bore down, then to the more solid wind oh less operating room. the power was knocked out. it was too dangerous to move her anywhere else. her baby was not doing the best. so i needed to monitor her baby to see how he was tolerating the birthing process. the only place to do that would be the o.r. within minutes, the hospital was hit with massive force. now what are you thinking? once i felt the floor start shaking, it felt like an earthquake. i knew we were getting hit directly. did you think at that moment that you and braydon could survive this? i didn t know if we would.
