john goodman and the baby


my 16 year old niece was in the hospital giving birth. it was all very sad because she was giving it up for adoption. my old man was john goodman and we rode in on his softail to lend support. when we got there the baby had just arrived and my niece was a mess. the nurses and staff were treating her like a dog because they had already obtained her signature to take possession of the baby. they were speaking to her in very harsh tones and trying to wrestle the baby from her roughly. john took one look at the situation and said, 'we're takin' the kid!'. he reached over and snatched the signed paper from the nurse's hand, ripped it into a thousand pieces and told me to gather up the baby. my niece and i were in shock. john looked at my niece and said, 'don't worry, the kid will always be yours. just finish school and get on your feet, he can stay with us until you graduate from college if you want.' my niece's tears dried immediately. just then her parents arrived and john said, 'let's go!'. suddenly the baby was 7 months old and looked exactly like john- adorable. i struggled to find the right position because now the baby was so big. 'put the kid on your back like a papoose, that's how danny and donna do it.' he said. i did and we rode off.
