I think that if I had to do what hospital based midwives do on a daily basis I would not be a midwife for long and so I would like to say   MIDWIVES WHO WORK WITHIN THE HOSPITAL AND ADVOCATE AND STAND WITH WOMEN FOR THEIR BASIC RIGHTS ARE FANTASTIC!!! IT IS NOT EASY!! IT IS EXHAUSTING!!   Now what have all you midwives done for yourself today to keep yourself sane?   If nothing else, today Fiona, you have my admiration and I ask those goodly forces in the universe to provide for you strength, courage and endurance and surround you with peace and joy.   Change must be initiated from all aspect and people who work within the system for change are vital, stay strong good women.   I know that I am saying things that we all know but I just want to affirm you. You know these things in your heart. Stay true.   In peace and joy   Sally Westbury
