Now, I'm going to be a millionaire. Evodokia thought to herself, this is the life. During the first year in Hilo, Evdokia had her second child. There was no doctor and her mother was hundreds of miles away so she locked the door of the bedroom and had her baby alone. She was young and unexperienced in such matters so she lay the entire day with the umbilical cord attached . Later her husband broke the lock and brought her a midwife.
In 1916 The Samborsky's sailed for America, 1933 Anton Samborsky died, and in 1935 Evdokia remarried... This time a Russian Colonel, but that is another story.
My mama and I.
