Day 50

I HONOR AMY DEAGLE
I started with Amy because she and I share a special bond - we billeted at Shirley's house in Athabasca while attending Alexandra Franzen's Write Yourself Into Motion workshop.  Amy trained as a nurse in the states.  She has a nursing degree and was inspired to become a midwife in Canada, only the reality didn't live up to the dream.  Instead of being honored for the gifts and talents that she brought to the home birthing process, she found herself fighting against a system that struggled with how to integrate her comprehensive skill set into a laymen's midwife program.  It was an HONOR to meet and spend time with Amy and to hear her story.  She has the capacity to deliver on whatever she chooses, and I'm a HUGE fan!

XOXO
