*** It was my last year in Nursing and I am completing my cases for community deliveries, together with a licensed midwife, I was closely monitoring this first time-mother and so her husband, I was so happy that time that we delivered their baby girl safely in their home.. =`) It was my first community delivery case. I was happy to signed the birth certificate.. The baby is now 9 years old... =`)

--A CHRISTMAS MEMORY-- Twelfth midnight, big bell in the Church nearby singing Ding! Dong! Ding! Dong! Floating Christmas carols and cheers bubble to plague warmth the freezing air! Old and young wearing wide winsome smiles, they hug and kiss in delight, while I in my scrub-suit is calling! Calling the father of the newborn, I am holding! _______________________________________________________________________ ~A Christmas Memory - Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Broken Wings~ __Olive Eloisa Guillermo__ November 25, 2015
