I was flying home from the states, seated next to a woman with a small baby. A couple of hours into the flight, the woman asked me to hold her baby for a second because she didn’t feel good. I was struggling with the squirming baby when I looked over and saw that she had passed out. The flight attendants found three doctors on board. They all came over to examine her and at first they couldn’t find a pulse. Then they discovered a very weak pulse. They needed access to her, so I had to move, with the baby, to another row. The examination and treatment continued for THREE HOURS before they decided to make an emergency landing. I held that baby the entire time – I didn’t know what else to do. As a bachelor with no kids, this was a whole new world to me. The woman ended up being OK. The baby was happily able to go back to his mom.

You mean there were no other moms on flight??
Oh well, you got a crash course in parenting without
being one -- that'll help you decide what you wanna do in the future as far as that's concerned. ;)
sounds scary!
