Nancy coined the term "VBAC" and by 1975 she was hearing the acronym being used all over the country and was seeing it in medical articles as well. "  
 
I spent some time with Nancy in Boston in 1997, a wonderful woman. She is now a midwife in private practice.  Recently in an email she was griping about how she was ignored by the obstetricians at a conference, they wouldn't let her speak,  and that "they" were using the term as tho it was their own invention.  Wouldn't believe she had coined it. Does that sound like a familiar story?
