Hi Andrea - yes, now that I know Lara and Pat's
families have spoken to the media, I can say yes it's the one you visited.
They have had such a difficult time with the media, and their privacy wishes
have had to be respected (you have no idea what lengths the media will go to to
get a story). Regards, Lynne

Lynne, Just reading between the
lines that private hospital on the sunshine coast that was reported as the one
where the famous tennis star and his wife chose to birth their baby wouldn't
be one I've visited would it? Andrea On Friday, August 2, 2002, at 05:07

Jo! a woman in my singing group is planning a vbac ... I just
heard she visited her Gp today only to be told she would HAVE to have a CS
as she has a haemorrhoid and it may rupture and she may bleed to
death! I'll be seeing her
tomorrow... Vicki xox

Alright, sorry listers it is that time again when
I get really pis*&d about vbac exclusions from birth centres
again. Sorry to harp but I have to vent!! Why is it
that my right to chose an elective surgery for reasons not based on medical
evidence is adhered to without further questions or dispute and that right
to choose what happens to my body is backed by society. But if
I want to exercise that same right, but to chose a vbac and a vbac that is
not medically managed, I am flatly denied.
Tell
me this is not discrimination!
SOME of us have the
right to chose, SOME of us gain the support for our choice, SOME have the
last say in our care... but as long as it suits policy! Why is it that
if someone wants to birth by cs due to fears of complications that occurred
last time, this is considered a valid reason. but if I say I don't
want continuous monitoring based on the inaccuracy of ECG readouts and
their direct influence of increasing the cs rate...that is not good
enough to be respected and supported??? PLEASE! Some one tell me
what is wrong with this!!!!! I am disgusted and
saddened by Flinders Medical Centres decision to not allow vbac in its birth
centre. It is a sad loss for vbac women.... midwives, lets hope
there is a resolve to the insurance issues, cause I know for sure that if
vbac is continued to be refused from BC then home birth vbacs will be on the
rise. Jo Bainbridge founding member CARES
