A year later, and all of us who had the opportunity to learn and practice midwifery in Uganda last summer have spread our wings as registered midwives. Natalie and I are happily reunited now as Vancouver midwives, working out of a clinic at UBC. Our other former classmates are spread around the province, providing excellent midwifery care to women in communities from Victoria to Chilliwack, to Squamish and Haida Gwai.
We are forever grateful to the Ugandan women and midwives, as well as to our UBC preceptors and instructors who taught us so much and shared their knowledge, strength, laughter and birthing experiences with us! We take all that we learned with us into practice, and it helps us in our care of local women and families.
Thanks for your support and readership!
