willing
to try it out.
Both said they were very much in favor of it.
The doctor set the pain transfer to 10 percent for starters,
explaining
that even 10 percent was probably more pain than the father had
ever
experienced before. But as the labor progressed, the husband
felt fine
and asked the doctor to go ahead and kick it up a notch.
The doctor then adjusted the machine to 20 percent pain
transfer. The
husband was still feeling fine. The doctor then checked the
husband's
blood pressure and was amazed at how well he was doing.
At this point they decided to try for 50 percent. The husband
continued
to feel quite well. Since the pain transfer was obviously
helping the
wife considerably, the husband encouraged the doctor to
transfer ALL the
pain to him. The wife delivered a healthy baby with virtually
no pain,
and the husband had experienced none. She and her husband were ecstatic.
When they got home they found the Milkman dead on the
porch.
