Though I adhere to no formal religio...Good for you. Though I adhere to no formal religion, I do believe in God. I also believe he works through us, and gives us strength and guidance to do what we need to do. Your "masterpiece" will give you peace of mind, and may provide an invaluable service to future mothers. It is only through exposure to womens events that doctors and hospitals will start considering a mothers welfare, along with covering their butts. I honestly believe that our medical community thinks that just because you go home with a live baby, you are fine and everything was wonderful. I don't think they understand that there is a burden that we take away from traumatic birth experiences. It clouds us, and it takes many years for some of us to come to grips with that burden. By taking the steps that you have taken, you are tackling that burden. Not only on your own behalf, but on the behalf of other mothers. That rocks!<br />I commend you for being so sensible about it. We live in a sue happy society, and while often it is justified...sometimes it's not. It comes down to what you are able to deal with. Doctors tend to think that they are untouchable, and when you consider what their actions might have caused, it can traumatize you that much more. <br />Thanks so much for your comment (on my blog), and I will be you in my thoughts.<br />qtberryhead@comcast.netHeather Griffith Brewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07640170791000157111noreply@blogger.com
