First New Year’s baby is highly anticipated event

By Sarah Ottney

TOLEDO FREE PRESS MANAGING EDITOR sottney@toledofreepress.com

New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day always generate an extra buzz of anticipation on local labor and delivery floors as patients, hospital staff and media alike wait to see which family and which hospital will deliver the first baby of the new year.

“We hope every year we have the first baby,” said Gloria Mayne, a registered nurse who’s worked in ProMedica Toledo Hospital’s nursery

for 43 years. Her shift starts at 7 a.m. “The first thing we say [when we walk in] is, ‘Did we have the first baby?’ and they are like, ‘Yeah!’ or ‘Not this year.’ It’s a fun little competition.”

Other holidays, like Christmas, are special too, but nothing compares with the excitement of New Year’s, agreed Beth Garzony, a registered nurse who has worked with Mayne at Toledo Hospital for 26 years.

“We always like to get the title of first baby,” she said. “It’s a new beginning. New Year’s is just exciting. It’s just fun to be here.”

The buzz might be higher than normal on

New Year’s, but procedures are the same as any other day, said Dr. Kent Bishop, an OB/GYN and medical director for ProMedica Toledo Hospital Women’s Services.

“It’s pretty much business as usual,” Bishop said. “But there’s a certain amount of excitement to deliver that first baby of the year or even if it’s just the first baby of our institution.”

The excitement means many staff members volunteer for New Year’s Eve or New Year’s Day shifts.

“That’s not usually a day that we struggle to get coverage,” Bishop said.

First in state

At least twice in recent years, Lucas County’s first baby was also the first born in the state, according to the Ohio Department of Health.

Andre Clark, born to Tonya Clark of Toledo at midnight at Mercy St. Vincent Medical Center, was Ohio’s first baby of 2007, beating 14 other Lucas County babies born Jan. 1 for the local title and making him the first of nearly 150,000 babies born in the state that year. JaNiyla Fields, born to Shaniece Fields of Toledo at 12:01 a.m. at Toledo Hospital, tied for first in the state in 2011. n BABIES CONTINUES ON 6

n BABIES CONTINUED FROM 4

Quadruplets

A set of quadruplets born at Toledo Hospital in 2010 are among the most memorable first births among hospital staff, said Tracy Buder, a registered nurse and clinical director of ProMedica Toledo Hospital’s labor and delivery unit.

“The quads stick out in my mind,” Buder said. “I remember it being very exciting and that everyone thought it was pretty neat to have the first baby of the new year be quads. I believe there was a patient who was upset, that thought it was purposeful, but it absolutely was not. She had to be delivered for a necessity.”

Regardless of a family’s desire to have the first baby of the year, there is a strict set of criteria that must be met when deciding whether or when to induce labor, stressed Dr. Michael Hnat, a maternal fetal medicine specialist at Toledo Hospital.

“There has to be a medical indication, not just because it’s the end of the year,” Hnat said.

“We don’t just induce people haphazardly,” Bishop added. “There are some pretty stringent criteria.”

A typical delivery includes a care provider — a physician or midwife — along with two nurses to assist, Bishop said.

“That would be the minimum for a low-risk, straightforward birth,” he said. “That number can be jacked up to about three times that in about 30 seconds if needed, so it has the ability to ramp up quickly.”

Bishop said there was once a set of twins at Toledo Hospital who were born in two different years — one on Dec. 31 and one on Jan. 1.

“They had different birthdays and different years.

That was really cool,” Bishop said. “It’s been a few years, so it’s turning into folklore now, but it definitely happened.”

Busiest hospital

Toledo Hospital is home to the region’s busiest labor and delivery unit. The first baby of the new year has been born there five out of the past six years. The hos-

December 29, 2013

pital delivered nearly half — more than 3,800 — of the county’s nearly 8,000 babies born in 2012 and is on track for similar numbers this year, Bishop said.

“It would make sense that we have a good chance to get [2014’s first birth] just because of the number of deliveries being done,” Bishop said.

Katelyn Shaner of Bowling Green was the first baby of the new year in 1990. She was born at 12:01 a.m. at Toledo Hospital.

“My parents would tell me about it all the time how the doctors said my mom could decide what year I was born in and how they watched the ball drop just as she had me,” Shaner wrote in an email. “I have the newspaper clippings in my baby book and it’s a running joke about how I was impatient to make my entrance and spoiled my older brother’s plans for the night.”

In Lucas County, there were 12 babies born Jan. 1, 2013, 17 born that day in 2012, 21 in 2011, 27 in 2010, nine in 2009 and 14 in 2008, according to the ToledoLucas County Health Department.

Buder and Bishop said they have each delivered the first baby of the new year once.

“That was very exciting. It was cool to do that,” Buder said. “We didn’t really think we were going to be the first baby of the new year, but we ended up being so it was very cool. We always want to have the New Year’s baby.”

New Year’s Day isn’t the only coveted birth date, Bishop said. Some parents have personal reasons for hoping for a certain date, whether for family significance or because of a unique numerical sequence, such as 10/11/12, Bishop said.

Despite the extra attention heaped on the first baby each year, Hnat said every birth is special.

“Giving birth and having children here or anywhere is a magical time. It’s a birthday and it is a magical time for everybody,” Hnat said. “It’s business as usual on New Year’s Eve. It just happens to be a special time and it’s always a special time. We go on and take care of the patient and their needs, but we don’t really provide the magic to it. That’s their part.” O

The first baby born each year always generates a lot of attention, but New Year’s Day 2010 brought four times the usual excitement as quadruplets were the first to arrive in Lucas County.

“They are a miracle. They are,” said mom Lauren Hablitzel-Lake of Michaela, James, Dakota and Isaiah Lake of Perrysburg, who will turn 4 on Jan. 1. “From being preemies, they have some developmental delays, but they don’t have any major medical issues. To have four healthy babies, they are the minority when it comes to quadruplets.”

The siblings, who started preschool this year, share the same birthday, but their parents said that’s pretty much where the similarities end.

“They are each their own individual and really have their own personalities, their own strengths, their own weaknesses,” Lauren said. “Within a week their personalities were completely different, right away, even as babies.”

Michaela is “all girl,” said dad Nick Lake. She loves princesses and the colors pink and purple. n QUADS CONTINUES ON 9

n QUADS CONTINUED FROM 8 “We thought she’d be a tomboy, but she’s a complete girlie girl,” Lauren said. “She’ll do everything [her brothers] do, but in her skirt.”

Dakota loves animals, planes, cars and Nerf guns. Isaiah likes trains and bells. James is into firetrucks and dragons. In terms of personality, James is the take-charge leader while Dakota is more laid-back — and it’s been that way since they were babies, Lauren said.

“I just love watching them together,

watching them play, watching them talk to each other,” she said. “They could talk to each other before they could talk to me. They had their own little language and they could understand each other.”

Four heartbeats

The couple, both now 29, said they were ecstatic to find out Lauren was pregnant with quadruplets.

“I thought something was wrong the whole time because the way the doctor acted [during the ultrasound],” Lauren said. “He stopped and pulled

back and said, ‘I need her chart,’ and he’s flipping through papers.”

Instead, he pointed out four separate heartbeats.

“By that point, I was already crying because I thought something was wrong.

So I was just relieved,” Lauren said. “[Nick] just laughed. Delirious laughter.

The doctor kept looking at him like, ‘Are you OK?’ We’re like, ‘Yes! We’re great!’

Life is a blessing. It’s precious.”

“Both our families live in Perrysburg and that was always our ideal end location,” said Lauren, who left her job as a middle school math teacher to care for the kids, but plans to return to work once they start kindergarten. Nick is a structural engineer with DGL Consulting Engineers in Maumee.

The easiest part of having four kids the same age is that all are at the same developmental level and interested in similar activities, Lauren said. The hardest part is finding ways to give them individualized attention.

Although the boys still let their mom dress them alike — which she said she plans to do until they protest — Michaela is already having none of that.

“When they were little, they always had coordinating outfits, but that ended real quick because she’s extremely independent and wants to do everything herself,” Lauren said. “She dresses herself every day.”

had been on bed rest at ProMedica Toledo Hospital for six weeks when her water broke around 10:45 p.m.

Dec. 31, 2009. The babies were delivered via cesarean section: James was first at 12:17 a.m., followed by Isaiah at 12:18 a.m., Michaela at 12:19 a.m. and Dakota at 12:20 a.m.

The couple’s one request was that all four be born in the same year, even though it meant missing the deadline for that year’s tax deductions.

“Basically, a difference of 18 to 20 minutes was thousands of dollars,” Nick said, laughing. “The money would have been nice, but it was fine.”

The couple said they found out pretty quickly they had the county’s first babies of the new year.

“People ask me all the time if I planned that. No, I did not,” Lauren said.

“As soon as I delivered, they were like, ‘OK, let’s call whoever and see.’ I guess it’s a big deal for them. The nurses were so excited. And with it being quads, I think that just elevated everything.”

The couple said that, as news spread, they were showered with well-wishes and gifts, including a six-month-supply of diapers from a local church and baby clothes from other parents of multiples.

Nick said the distinction of having the first babies was “the cherry on top,” but he was mainly just relieved to be finished with the stress of Lauren’s high-risk pregnancy and moving on to the next phase.

The babies weighed between 2 and 4 pounds each at birth. Including Lauren’s bed rest and the time they spent in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), the Lakes stayed at the hospital for 114 days. Michaela and Isaiah went home Feb. 28. Dakota was released two weeks later and James three days after Dakota.

Lauren said it was an amazing feeling when all four children were finally home.

“Relief. Just like — finally. The family’s together. We’re all home,” she said.

The family turns heads and fields questions everywhere they go, Lauren said, which can be frustrating at times, like when people take pictures of the kids without asking.

“Questions I don’t mind, as long as it’s nice,” Lauren said. “But we need to put up a little sign on our wagon: ‘Please refrain from photography.’ I would never take a picture of someone else’s child. Why are you taking pictures of my kids? They are not a circus act.

These are my children. Yes, there’s four of them and I know that’s a lot, but ...”

The Lakes haven’t really talked to the kids about their “celebrity” status yet, but plan to when they are older.

“This will follow them now for life, which is kind of a nice little bonus,” Nick said. “It doesn’t define them by any means, but it’s neat.” O

New Year’s babies

Family hit jackpot with first baby of 2006

By Matt Liasse Toledo Free Press Staff Writer news@toledofreepress.com

Jimmie Jordan and his wife Karen had plans to spend New Year’s Eve 2005 at a Detroit casino. Instead, the couple spent the night welcoming Lucas County’s first baby of 2006.

Jordan said he didn’t believe the news at first when the nurse told him.

“They have a way of finding things out,” he said. “When I first heard, I thought they were just joking.

“As time went on and they convinced me that this was the actual truth, I was very happy. We were both happy, my wife and I. We were excited. It was a history-making moment, actually.”

Jordan said he thought of his newborn as a celebrity, in a way.

“It was a pretty iconic moment,” he said.

Karen was a week overdue, so her going into labor wasn’t much of a surprise. Jordan said the hospital was not crowded or hectic at all.

Romeo Jordan, who weighed 7 pounds, 4 ounces, was born at Mercy St. Anne Hospital shortly after mid-

night and less than an hour after the couple arrived at the hospital.

“He was ready to come on out,” Jordan said.

Romeo was the 10th baby for the couple, who has since gone on to have two more, for a total of 12 children. Jordan said he always wanted to have a big family and thinks Romeo will too one day.

“He has very big concerns with family,” Jordan said. “Any family function we have, he always wants to be there. ... He’s going to be a family man, I know it.”

Romeo is currently in the first grade and likes to play football and basketball.

His father said he has a lot of energy.

New Year’s baby 2005 symbolized hope

By Brigitta Burks

Toledo Free Press Staff Writer news@toledofreepress.com

The Bruhl family was dealing with a lot when they were blessed with the birth of son Joshua, the first baby born in Lucas County in 2005.

Shortly before Joshua came into their lives, Laurel and Steven Bruhl’s baby son Nathaniel died suddenly and unexpectedly. “[Joshua] ended up being our little symbol of hope and rebirth in our family after losing his brother Nathan,” Laurel said.

Laurel also had high blood pressure during her difficult pregnancy.

Labor was induced at Mercy St. Anne Hospital on Dec. 31, 2004. MeanJOSHUA BRUHL while, her grandmother was passing away at a hospital in Lima.

“My grandma was actually on her deathbed the night [Joshua] was born and I was very close to my grandma,” Laurel said. “I just remember thinking, ‘Grandma’s leaving and I can’t go see her.’”

Laurel said her infant’s potential status as first baby of 2005 wasn’t on her mind until the nurses at St. Anne informed her. “[The nurses] kept coming in going, ‘It’s always Toledo Hospital, but you might be the first; right now you’re the first,’” Laurel said with a laugh.

“We weren’t planning on it. We really thought he’d be there Friday night (Dec. 31).”

Joshua was born at 6:18 a.m. Jan. 1, 2005, an hour and a half after his great-grandmother died.

Laurel said within four hours of his birth, the media were there. Her best friend recorded all the Bruhls’ TV appearances for them, which Joshua still enjoys watching.

“He loves watching the day he was born,” Laurel said.

“His birthday usually gets overshadowed with the holidays so at least it’s a fun thing for him.

“He started life with a bang. … He started off right,” Laurel said.

After Joshua’s birth, the community rallied around the family, Laurel said.

“We just had people calling the hospital and calling our home and leaving gifts on the steps,” she said. “They saw us go through the grieving with Nathan and everybody was excited to see Josh there and healthy.”

The hospital released Laurel and Joshua so they could attend her grandmother’s funeral, where the baby continued to be a symbol of hope for the family.

“We sat up front and the uncles who are never emotional are sitting there, looking at him and crying,” Laurel said.

Laurel and Steven, a cardiologist for Mercy, now live in Bowling Green with their children. Joshua will turn 9 this year.

The third-grader enjoys Legos, reading, history and playing on the computer, Laurel said.

His siblings Laurel Emily, 12, Ethan, 7, Alexa, 6, and Michael, 3, aren’t jealous of their brother’s former “celebrity” status, Laurel said.

“He’s our sweet funny computer guy.” O

Contrarian investing and the case for gold A

s an investor, it is much more in late 2009 and early 2010, when difficult than one might we heard disgruntled investors who imagine to buy low and sell took a significant hit in the 2008 recession claim that they high. While this seems would never buy stocks like a logical course of again. For the sake of action, that mindset will comparison, buying into likely result in you being the Dow blue chip stocks labeled a contrarian. This today would be like week I wanted to take a buying a house in 2007, look into the concept beright at the peak. That is hind contrarian investing, not to say that the market and a sector that I believe will not go higher, but it is vastly undervalued. certainly is not a value Lately, I have found Ben TREECE buy today. that many investors are I have been keeping a close eye on hoping to ride the wave of the Dow Jones industrial average and other blue precious metal mining stocks and comchip stocks. This year, the Dow is up ap- panies, as I see a great opportunity for proximately 25 percent and it is up 145 growth in that sector. In the past three years, gold and mining stocks have percent from the lows in 2009.

However, the time to buy is not been hit hard; however, I contend that when the prices are high; that’s a the hit has not been due to investment sucker’s bet. The time to buy was back fundamentals. For example, Kitco pub-

lishes a ratio that tracks daily the price of physical gold divided by XAU, an index of gold mining stocks that trades on the Philadelphia exchange. This ratio historically ranges from about 3-5. At the time of this writing, that ratio is just shy of 15. In order for that ratio to come back into alignment, gold stocks would have to triple in value, gold would have to go from $1,200/oz. to $400/oz., or some combination of the two. Another possibility would be if mining stocks were to rally significantly while the price of physical gold remained stagnant.

Unfortunately, the gold market has fallen victim to rather obvious market manipulation. For homework, track the price of gold on the world market and watch what happens at approximately 8:30 a.m. every morning. As soon as NYMEX trading opens, the price takes a sharp turn one way or another, which has lately been down.

The fact remains that gold stocks (judging by XAU) are at 10-year lows.

XAU’s all-time low was in October of 2000, and gold stocks went on to rally over 300 percent from 2000 until the recession in 2008.

From 1997-2000, physical gold fell in price by approximately 37 percent while the Dow rallied almost 77 percent, and from 2011 to the present, physical gold is down 35 percent while the Dow is up 60 percent.

Given recent news regarding tapering and that interest rates are at historic lows and should rise, I see growth opportunities in the sector, however I understand if some readers call me biased due to our holdings. Some will call it absurd to even give the sector any consideration whatsoever.

That is the story of a contrarian: Buy when others call you crazy and sell when others call you stupid. O

A Toledo tradition since 2005

‘Just Your Love’ Chris Shutters and Scott Fish contribute track to holiday CD.

By Jeff McGinnis Toledo Free Press Star Pop Culture Editor PopGoesJeff@gmail.com

Writing an original Christmas song for the Make-A-Wish benefit CD “Holiday Wishes 3” presented an unusual challenge for Toledo area singer-songwriter Chris Shutters. Not necessarily writing a holiday song — he’d always wanted to try that. No, the obstacle was the state of mind he’d need to be in to write it.

“As far as stylistically, it was a challenge. Because it had to be really happy, and I don’t have a problem with that. But it’s easier to write songs when, say, you’re not happy,” Shutters said in an interview with Toledo Free Press Star.

“I almost had to put myself in a cheery situation. The song’s about, you know — everybody writes Christmas songs about already-married couples and their love together. But nobody talks about, like, the first Christmas as a

couple. The very first Christmas, and the nerves you feel, and ‘What do I get her?’ and ‘What do I do?’ And now you’re in a situation where her family’s coming.

And there’s a lot of nerves in there, and nobody really talks about that at all.”

The resulting song, “Just Your Love,” sounds like a departure from the bluesy rock that Shutters has become best known for around the Glass City and beyond. Yet he and his writing partner Scott Fish tackled the song with the same creative vigor they approach all their joint projects with.

“I got a Facebook message, and [was] asked if I would be interested in doing it,” Shutters said. “And I’d never written a Christmas song before, so I figured, why not give it a shot? And I had my buddy Scott Fish — we’d written together before, as a group we’re called Shutterfish — and he said he’d help me out.”

The songwriting process was fairly truncated — Shutters estimates it took roughly a day to finish — but was still

challenging. “It was definitely hard.

I’ve never done anything like that before. Actually, I just listened to a lot of — I was inspired by Paul McCartney’s ‘Wonderful Christmastime.’ So I listened to that, and I was like, ‘I’ve got to do something like this. Cheery, simple, have a good story. So that’s where I got the idea.”

The stripped-down, simple execution of the track extended to the recording process. Shutters said the song came together fairly quickly in the studio. “I laid the guitar down and the vocals down in one. Those are two separate takes, but I laid them both down in one take. And then Scott added, I believe piano, he added piano to it. And the whole process probably took, it was like three hours one day and like an hour or two the next day. It was fun.”

Shutters said he hopes listeners get the same level of fun from the track as he and Fish had recording it — especially for a cause as heartfelt as MakeA-Wish Foundation. O

‘Just Your Love’ is Chris Shutters’ first Christmas composition.

Film review: ‘Saving Mr. Banks’ is one of the year’s best movies

By James A. Molnar The Gold Knight jmolnar@toledofreepress.com

It’s a Disney movie about making a Disney movie. And it’s one of the best movies of the year about the making of one of the best movies of its time.

“Saving Mr. Banks” tells the story of Walt Disney’s tireless 20-year pursuit to adapt P.L. Travers’ “Mary Poppins” books into a movie.

Disney made a promise to his daughters that he would make the book into a film and he didn’t want to go back on his promise.

The story focuses on Travers’ twoweek trip to California, where Disney works to seal the deal, which is not easy. Travers, played exquisitely by Emma Thompson, fears the Disneyfication of her story, thinking the serious tale would be told in a musical romp with singing, dancing and — worst of all — animation.

Tom Hanks perfectly disappears into his Walt persona while he tries to woo Travers and reassure her that her beloved story would be in good, reverential hands.

He’s willing to do whatever it takes, even if it means bending over backward to accommodate her requests, which at one point include leaving the color red out of the movie.

But the most fascinating part of “Saving Mr. Banks” is the interweaving of Travers’ childhood flashbacks with the film’s present day 1961.

What Travers experienced as a child had a significant impact on her writing and her present-day temperament. Travers’ disposition makes for some very entertaining dialogue. And what audiences learn from the flashbacks is that maybe Travers needs a little Disney magic to cheer her up.

Fans of all things Disney will admire subtle details throughout the movie, including plans for Walt

You Know Dave He Gets Everybody Financed!!

Disney World in Disney’s office and the shots of Disneyland.

Music from “Mary Poppins” is also expertly weaved throughout the movie and performed surprisingly well by Jason Schwartzman and B.J. Novak as Richard and Robert Sherman, respectively. From the opening to closing

scenes, “Saving Mr. Banks” paints a picture of Walt Disney that highlights his legacy and vision.

There is sentimentality to this true story as well, thanks in part to director John Lee Hancock, who also helped bring “The Blind Side” to the big screen.

While the corners of the story may

have been smoothed out a bit for the sake of storytelling, what’s left is one of the best movies of the year that leaves audiences feeling a little of that Disney magic — similar to when they first saw that flying nanny. O

here is something remarkable about a golden statuette that keeps audiences interested, especially for more than eight decades.

The Academy Awards, known for its iconic Oscar statuettes, have a rabid following among cinephiles and fashionistas alike. One group watches all of the nominees and predicts the winners; another looks forward to the couture gowns and priceless baubles James A. on the Red Carpet.

A new book, “85 Years of the Oscar,” penned by film historian Robert Osborne and published by Abbeville Press, captures this enthusiasm and includes stories and pictures from each year since the inception of the accolades in 1928.

An official publication of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which hands out the Oscars, the 472-page book offers meticulous details of every ceremony and the culture around it.

Osborne has chronicled the Os-

cars since the Academy celebrated 50 years of handing out Oscars in 1978, when he working for The Hollywood Reporter. The current book is updated and re-released every five years. “85 Years of the Oscar” is an update to “80 Years of the Oscar.”

For the publisher and president of Abbeville Press, Robert E. Abrams, the scope of the book and Osborne’s passion for film are highlights his team.

Molnar for “We’re fortunate to have Robert Osborne as the author of ‘85 Years of the Oscar’ because his passion for the art of film shows in the text,” said Abrams via an emailed statement. “It’s rare to have a reference book convey such love for the material and we appreciate Robert Osborne’s contribution to film history with this vibrant record of the evolution of the industry and the Academy.”

For an Academy that prides itself on honoring outstanding achievements in the film industry, this book lives up to the same standard in pub-

lishing. The six-pound book is printed on heavy stock paper with full-color images throughout its detailed accounts of every ceremony and decade.

Oscar winners share their memories of winning on the bottom of some pages. Lee Unkrich, winner of the 2010 Best Animated Feature Oscar for “Toy Story 3,” shares his memory about his fear of tripping up the stairs on his way to accept his statuette.

“It was a long, crazy journey to winning the Academy Award that ended in eight treacherous steps. Yes, I counted,” he said on page 384.

There are also facts and records featured at the back, including the films with the most Oscar wins (“Ben-Hur,” “Titanic” and “The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King” with 11), most honored performer (Katharine Hepburn, winner of four acting Oscars) and the first person to refuse an Oscar (Dudley Nichols, who won for his screenplay of 1935’s “The Informer”).

A massive 46-page index closes the book, followed by photo credits.

With more than eight decades of

Notice to unnamed father: Cause # 02D08-1312-JT000150 The unnamed putative father of a child born to Wilma Fordham on November 22, 2013 or the person who claims to be the father of a child born to Wilma Fordham on November 22, 2013 (collectively “putative father”), is notified that a Verified Petition for Termination of Parent/Child Relationship of a Child Born Out of Wedlock concerning said child was filed in the Office of the Clerk of Allen County Superior Court, 715 South Calhoun Street, Fort Wayne, Indiana, 46802 and a hearing on that Petition is scheduled to occur on February 24, 2014, at 9:00am in the Allen County Superior Court, Fort Wayne, Indiana. If the unnamed putative father does not register in relationship to the above named birth mother or said child on the putative father registry at the Indiana State Department of Health within 30 days of the date of the filing of the above referenced Petition, or file a notice with the above named court to contest the termination of his putative parental rights within 30 days of receipt of this notice, or appear at the hearing on the above referenced Petition, the Court may enter a default judgment against him that terminates his parent/ child relationship with the child.

Further, the birth mother has expressed the intention to place the child for adoption. If the unnamed putative father wants to be entitled to receive notice of an adoption petition concerning the child and to not have his consent to the child’s adoption placement irrevocably implied pursuant to the Indiana Law, the unnamed putative father must file a paternity action under I.C. 31-14 or register in relationship to the above named birth mother on the putative father registry at the Indiana State Department of Health within thirty (30)days after the date of the filing of the above referenced Petition and then perform such acts as required by law.

This notice is being served by publication.

Nothing Wilma Fordham or anyone else says to the unnamed putative father of the child relieves the unnamed putative father of his obligations under this Notice.

Under Indiana law, a putative father is a person who is named as or claims that he may be the father of a child born out of wedlock but who has not yet been legally proved to be the child’s father.

This notice does not fully set forth the unnamed putative father’s legal obligations or rights under Indiana’s Adoption and Parent/Child Relationship Termination Statues. A person being served with this notice should consult the Indiana Adoption and Parent/Child Relationship Termination Statues.
