Sarah Palin described the water as running down her leg -- before her speech! I was hospitalized by my doctor for a leak I didn't even realize I had (came up in routine visit). My doctor put me in a wheelchair and wheeled me across the street to the hospital where I was placed on bed rest for eleven days, unable to even get up to go to the bathroom. This precaution was taken because my premie's lungs needed a chance to develop as much as possible before birth. What Sarah Palin describes is a very dangerious condition and can result in miscarriage and/or infection. She is a liar, and I would happily say so to her face. ANY woman who has had this experience knows it. You don't get on a plane when your water breaks -- you go to a hospital, and you pray.
