<< Thanks Jan and others for your lovely messages of support.
Thanks has to go a band of 3 committed warriors (Barb Vernon, Ingrid
McKenzie and Margie Perkins) who are the yang to my ying!! and all members
of Maternity Coalition. We have 7 kids between us (some at challenging
ages!) and are keeping it together for the next couple of weeks before the
ACT election. If we achieve what the motion says (then please remember our
names!!) we are yet to keep 'the bastards honest'. ( I'll gladly come to
NSW and lobby the pollies with you) We will keep the list informed.
In solidarity

Hello Justine and fellow "warriors" in the ACT.
My sincerest congratulations to you all in your efforts to date on the PI
crisis facing Australian Midwifery. It is my hope that our partners in crime,
midwives, will acknowledge all the hard work, and commitment from women
(consumers) like yourselves and many others when it comes to the vote at the
ACMI AGM in September to include consumers as equal partners within the ACMI
- in the true spirit of partnership and in recognition of the vital role that
consumers play in the promotion and protection of the midwifery profession.
Yours in birth,
Tina Pettigrew
