ʻO Nowemapa 19, 1997, ua hina nāʻohana o Bobby lāuaʻo Kenny McCoy (McCaugheyʻohana) ma nāʻaoʻao mua o nā nūpepa hou - heʻehiku nā keiki a ua mau keiki lā.

Ke hopohopo nei aneiʻoe i ka liloʻana o nā wāhine a McKogi i mau mākua me nā keiki he nui? ʻAe, he mea maʻalahi loa ... Ma hope o ka hānauʻana o ke kaikamahine mua a Mikaela, hikiʻole i ka wahine ke loaʻa hou i kahi keiki no ka wā lōʻihi. A laila, kōkuaʻo IVF, akā,ʻaʻole me nā pāpālua heʻelua, aʻekolu paha, e like me ka mea e hiki nei i kēia manawa,ʻehiku hoʻi. ʻAe, ua hoʻopiʻiʻo Bobby i nā'ōpiopioʻehiku, a ma muli o nā hoʻomana hoʻomana, ua hōʻole hōʻole nā wāhine i ka wā e hikiʻole ke haʻalele i kekahi o lākou, me ka nānāʻole i nā'ōlelo hōʻeuʻeu olakino a me nā wanana kūponoʻole o nā kauka.
I ka kiʻi: McCaugy's Seven-Kenny, Alexis, Natalie, Kelsey, Nathan, Brandon, a me Joel.
ʻO ka hoʻopau houʻana o ka honua ma kaʻohana McKogi i hala 9 mau lā ma mua o ka hoʻonohonohoʻana. ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, ua ola nā keiki hou a pau, me ka paona he 1 kg, akāʻelua mau keiki -ʻo ke keiki i kapaʻiaʻo Natana a me kahi kaikamahine Alexis - kahi maʻi hōʻinoʻia - cerebral palsy. I ka manawa e hiki ai i ka wā e hiki ai iā lākou ke hele i kahi pono'ī, a uaʻaneʻaneʻo Natana e lanakila i ka maʻi, akāʻo Alexis e neʻe nei me ka kōkua o nā mea hele.

Ua hana 'ia kekahi mahele wale no kahi laina NBC Dateline - uaʻaeʻia iā lākou e pana i hoʻokahi hanana i kēlā me kēia makahiki no kahi kiʻiʻoniʻoni.
Ma mua koke iho nei, e mele anaʻo Kenny, Jr., Alexis, Natalie, Kelsey, Nathan, Brandon a me Ioʻela i ko lākou hānau mua - he 20 makahiki o lākou. ʻAʻoleʻoe makemake eʻike pehea i kēia manawa?
Kenneth McCogi - mea hana hou!
ʻO Kenny Jr., aʻo ia hoʻi -ʻo ka mea mua loa o nā kaikunāne a me nā kaikuahine, i hānau waleʻia he 1, 474 kg.

A ua hānauʻia kēia kaikamahine maikaʻi i mua o kona mau kaikuahine. ʻO Nowemapa 19, 1997 ua kaumahaʻo ia he 1219 grams wale nō, a ua ola kokeʻo ia i ka hana (a laila uaʻikeʻiaʻo ia ka maʻi pīpī). Aʻoiaiʻoiaiʻaʻoleʻo Alexis i hiki ke neʻe ma kahi kaʻawale, aia ma ke kula kiʻekiʻe, hiki iā ia ke kipa aku i ka lua o nā kāpena. Ma ke ala, e aʻoʻo Alexis ma ke kula likeʻole me Kenneth, akā i kekahi kumu'ē aʻe. ʻO kānaʻoihana iʻikeʻia e ke kaikamahine wale nōʻo ia he kumu o nā keiki'ōpiopio.

ʻO wai ka mea e noʻonoʻo i kahi pēpē he 907 gramona ma hope o ka hānauʻana he leo ikaika a nani hoʻi ia? Ma ke ala, ua meleʻo Kelsey ma ke mele maoli mai nā diapepe a ua hoʻomauʻia ma ke kāʻei o nā kaikamahine o Carlisle. I kēia manawa, ke aʻo nei nā kaikaina o McCogi ma ke Kulanui o Hannibal-Lagrange (ma ke kulanui i hāʻawiʻia iā lākou ma ka hānauʻana), akā i ka wā e hiki mai ana,ʻikeʻo ia he mea he hōkū ia i ka mele!

I ka makahiki 2005, ua hana hou ke keiki i kekahi mau meaʻokoʻa'ē aʻe i ka'ōiwi e neʻe i kēia wā me kaʻole o kekahi mea kōkua. Ma ke ala, uaʻike pinepineʻo Natana iā ia iho ma ke Kulanui o Hannibal-Lagrange me kona mau kaikuahine,ʻoiaiʻo ia e aʻo ai ma laila ma ke kulaʻo kaʻike.
ʻO Brandon James he kanaka kāpili!
Ua hānauʻiaʻo Brandon i ke ono o ka lālani, a ua kaupaonaʻia ma ka hānauʻana 970 grams. Ma hope o ke kula,ʻo ia wale nō ka mea i hoʻomauʻole i ka hoʻonaʻauaoʻana a komo i loko o ka pūʻali. I kēia manawa, lawelaweʻo Brandon i kahi hoʻokūkū.
ʻO John Stephen kahi mea hoʻolale i ka wā e hiki mai!
