She said that when, on her way home, she realised what would have happened if she had not by sheer chance seen little Matthew, she burst into tears. She wouldn&#39;t accept any accolades - she was just doing her job, she said. Well, that may be so, but she noticed something that 2 doctors and the children&#39;s hospital had not! And saved a little baby&#39;s life in the process.<br /><br />Doesn&#39;t this episode just show us how frail our mortality is? ...How our existence is always on a knife-edge? It makes you think...Roberthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08210753167984462321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6717521695653894398.post-80813786327584204272009-10-21T22:13:11.834+01:002009-10-21T22:13:11.834+01:00He certainly is a lucky wee soul. What are the chances of those events coming together at the one time? That is fantastic news and the future is brighter than it was in your last post. <br /><br />I wish him all the best.<br /><br />NechtanNechtanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12278154516387213135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6717521695653894398.post-46798576266186775162009-10-21T15:18:21.046+01:002009-10-21T15:18:21.046+01:00i would buy the midwife the biggest box of chocs ever. what a magnificant story. im so glad for little baby matthew, and your daughter.xxxalicehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14196652412958890367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6717521695653894398.post-75428603484516623532009-10-21T13:51:23.281+01:002009-10-21T13:51:23.281+01:00Lucky indeed for him...and a cheer for the midwife tooNota Benehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00969705852180234416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6717521695653894398.post-70986589022967390902009-10-21T11:23:36.126+01:002009-10-21T11:23:36.126+01:00Wow thats great news. But I wouldn&#39;t call him lucky, I would say he&#39;s blessed and meant to be on this earth. I also had more personal attention after giving birth at home than at hospital because my midwife called round to see me every day for a week to check on me and this was between Christmas and New Year. I&#39;m so thrilled with your good news.momcathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14160435019367425283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6717521695653894398.post-57438554183102739332009-10-21T10:57:47.801+01:002009-10-21T10:57:47.801+01:00Wow so very lucky.
