I wanted to send a note to thank you again for your presence at our birth, and all that you did for us. From my hazy perspective, your voice and your breath coached me through the strongest pains. Your three promises kept me real, and believing that all would come to an end. Our pre-birth meetings had prepared me to be strong, to trust in my body, and to trust the process of childbirth. I know from Josh and Crystal that you were invaluable to them as well, helping them to help me. I can’t imagine having gone through it without your emotional support, and wouldn’t have made it without your physical support! My apologies to your hands and biceps. You’re a true gift to birthing moms in Vancouver.
Hugs, Monica
