“Birth logs and delivery notes from that week are digital now,” the clerk said, flipping through a worn folder. “Let’s see… Sarah Jenkins. Emma Jenkins. Born March 18, 2019.”
She pointed to the record. “One child listed. Female. No mention of twins.”
Sarah frowned. “Could there be an error?”
The clerk gave her a cautious look. “In 2019, we had strict twin-check procedures. If twins were delivered, it would have been recorded immediately.”
Still, Sarah pushed. “Can I see the doctor’s name?”
The clerk turned the page.
Dr. Leonard B. Kessler.
