AWOB - My Birthday

I was born on June 28th, 1991 at 6:12PM in Queens General Hospital in Flushing Queens, NY. Hours before 6:12, my mom's water broke as she was coming home from work. My mom's doctor was located in Queens; keep in mind that we lived (and still do) in manhattan. At the time, my mom actually waited for my God-Father, who lived in Queens, to drive her all the way to Queens General Hospital, where my dad soon met up with after he finished working. My mom said that the doctor gave her epidural and had an episiotomy when she gave labor. She described my birth as a long and painful labor that took her about 3 hours--which I find hard to believe.
