Dear Jan Please pass on my best wishes to Maggie ( I do not have a contact address at present, and want to respect her privacy). The relief she is feeling must be huge. It is heartening to hear a positive in the light of all that has happened in the past few years in private midwifery practice.
More women are requesting homebirths now (in QLD at least), and I was on the phone to a GP yesterday, who said she wished the maternity services in this country could be overhauled, as they definitely did not support women's choice. I find it interesting that I tend to have GPs often as clients - definitely telling me something about what they must be thinking about what the system is about! Merry Christmas to you Jan - I'll be in touch in the New Year - Lots to do already and it isn't here yet! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jan Robinson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "ozmidwifery" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, December 19, 2002 3:04 PM Subject: [ozmidwifery] NO CASE TO ANSWER! > Dear list > > With a sigh of relief I heard some good news today that led me to give a > heartfelt cheer for independent midwifery, the clients of independent > midwives and especially for Maggie Lecky-Thompson who has always been a > champion of independent midwifery. > > Today the court decreed that Maggie had NO CASE TO ANSWER to the allegations > that she was continuing to hold herself out to be a midwife. > > I hope Maggie has her merriest Christmas ever as she soaks up the abundant > love and support that her family provides. > > Best wishes from her friends and colleagues of ASIM and HBA. > > Jan Robinson > > > __________________________________________________________________________ > Jan Robinson Phone/fax: 011+ 61+ 2+ 9546 4350 > Independent Midwife Practitioner e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > 8 Robin Crescent www: midwiferyeducation.com.au > South Hurstville NSW 2221 National Coordinator, ASIM > __________________________________________________________________________ > > > -- > This mailing list is sponsored by ACE Graphics. > Visit <http://www.acegraphics.com.au> to subscribe or unsubscribe. -- This mailing list is sponsored by ACE Graphics.
