Yeah, like the artful Dodger would get that. Something in it. Those kind of things. But I could not explain it. It was so painful. So my wife, when she gave birth, it was a little difficult. She had a long labor and ended up being a cesarean. Son came out and everything. And he was in ICU for a little bit, having a little trouble. But he did okay, you know.

And I remember just sitting in the hospital because she had to stay there for a few days. And I'm going, hmm, hmm. Wait a second, that's weird. My back doesn't hurt anymore. I'm like, what the fuck? And it was so weird. And I instantly knew what was going on, instantly, that I was sharing that pain. My body shared that pain. I instantly knew it, Neal.

It was the last time in that marriage that you've shared your pain with her, according to her. But it happened again with our next child. It wasn't as intense. And when it happened, I instantly knew what it was this time. And it only lasted for two weeks. It didn't last as long.

Well, hers wasn't as bad the second time. Okay. Was yours as bad? No. Okay. That's interesting. But I knew exactly what it was when it happened. Right on schedule.

She had cesarean, came out, gone. And I thought, there is something going on here. And so that was physical empathy. Not just emotional, that was physical. I'm like, what the fuck is that? to have the physical manifestation of that is a whole different category. And I can have that sometimes.

If somebody dropped dead, like in front of me, I'd start thinking other jokes. Sometimes I wouldn't be sad. I might be shocked. Bad things could happen, and it wouldn't hit me the way it would hit other people. And I would be concerned about that. I'm like, how come I'm not feeling this grief that people are feeling or whatever?
