COSHOCTON – Susan, Lisa and Brody Brightwell are all blessed to share the same birthday.
“It’s wonderful,” Susan said. “They are two of the best presents I’ve ever gotten. I couldn’t have asked for anything better.”
Susan was born Tuesday, Feb. 13, 1951 and she had Lisa on Tuesday, Feb. 13, 1979. Lisa then delivered Brody on Tuesday, Feb. 13, 1996.
“I was early and he was two days late,” Lisa said. “I went into the hospital on the 12th to be induced, but I begged them to wait.”
Brody ended up cooperating with Lisa and was born at 4:58 a.m. on her birthday.
“I swear I was in labor forever, but I got my birthday present,” she said. “My mom gave up her birthday for me and then I gave up mine for him. None of us our greedy, we are just thankful for the other person and try to spend time together.”
Brody is a senior at the Coshocton County Career Center. His mom and grandmother gathered there with him to take a quick picture during the center’s open house, which happened to fall on their birthdays. The open house was an opportunity for the public to see the various programs offered at the school and learn about careers available to the students once they graduate. Brody is in the the metal fab program. He plans to continue his education after graduation and someday work in the railroad industry.
