Even in memory care before he passed, he only remembered a couple stories and I was one of them. He'd introduce me to the staff as his New Year's Baby My mom wrote the whole thnig in my baby book and saved the newspaper clipping,

But don't think it was all them...I've capitalized off it my whole life too, LoL
I had show & tell fodder for years!
In my 20s I'd go out NYE and flirt with the bartenders about it being my bday and get free drinks, sometime around 30 that dried up
I've definitely had fun telling the story to random peoplle (esp in dr offices when they comment on it lol)
