.........It’s the people who I have met over the last few weeks, who
have given me such positive support, who I may never meet again
I had my eyes tested last week, and the retinopathy screener
is 12 years post mastectomy survivor
My son’s pastoral
care school teacher I spoke to is 20 years post mastectomy survivor
Then there’s the people I will be seeing again, like the Breast
care specialist nurses who have been honest with me and helped me understand my
feelings and my future.
When I told them was worried that I was going to be in
surgery for 4 hours….. the reply From ‘L’
was ‘ I promise we will take care of you’
Those are the words that I use when I care for my women, and
I know I mean it when I say it, ...........so I know she means it too
Im on the other side of the fence now, and the positivity and care i'm getting is what I hope I have been giving to women since I qualified as a Midwife..... and I realise even more how much those words and actions mean
That’s what makes me cry
