Thirteen was a lucky number for one Mt. Lebanon couple expecting a new child.

Asked by the hospital staff if he was going to play the Lottery on Wednesday night and use 3s and 13s in the numbers, Dad replied that he talked with a relative out in Las Vegas who was going to put some bets down for him. The hospital sent us this wonderful photo of the expanded happy family.

A couple from Eighty Four welcomed Alden William Johnson to the world on New Year's Day. He was the first baby born at St. Clair Hospital in 2013.
Alden William Johnson was the first baby born in 2013 at St. Clair Hospital. Alden arrived at 8:26 a.m.—four days after his due date—and weighed a whopping 11 pounds, 3 ounces. "It's exciting, 1-1-13, it's definitely memorable. It's totally not what we were expecting," said Alden's father, John Johnson. "The nurses were excited, too. Especially with him being such a big baby." There were several other babies born earlier on New Year's Day in western Pennsylvania, but Alden was the first baby of the year born at St. Clair Hospital. John said he and mom, Jessica Johnson, might have been a bit more nervous than the average first-time parents. They are both nurses. "Well we know more than most people, so we get nervous. But everything went …

The flu season appears to be starting earlier than usual this year, according to a doctor at St. Clair Hospital’s emergency room. Dr. Emily Brown said she’s seen an “uptick” in the patients coming to the hospital with flu-like symptoms over the past couple of weeks. She estimated there have been 70 cases so far, compared to none by this time last year. “We’ve definitely seen an uptick in the number of patients being diagnosed with the flu,” she said. “The flu season was just later in the year last year. We’ll see if it’ll be worse, or if it’s just earlier.” There is no shortage in the flu vaccine, so she suggested that everyone get a flu shot this year. The best time to get it was in the fall before flu season began, she said, although it’…
