Special delivery on wheels

[Isanti County News, January 27, 2010] Expecting parents Jen Amys and Micah Overman of Isanti, Minnesota, were set to have labor induced at around 6 a.m. on Jan. 12. However, their baby had a different idea in mind. Around midnight, Amys' water broke. She shouted to Overman, who headed outside to get the van warmed up. On their way to the hospital, they pulled into Casey's General Store on South Main Street in Cambridge, and the newest member of their family was born at 1:18 a.m.

An ambulance brought them to Cambridge Medical Center, where the volunteers and nurses were very accommodating. "Every time we turned around they were asking us if there was anything we needed," Amys said. "Everyone there was so wonderful."
