At the moment I’m doing a Diploma in Eating Disorders. I work with Cruse Bereavement Care and with East Kent Rape Crisis Centre as a Volunteer Counsellor, along side seeing clients on a private basis. Am I still a midwife? Yes, I return to the hospital to spend time with parents…
This is a thought for all of us who like to rescue people or fix them. Just ask yourself the question, does that person really want my help? Or am I getting in the way?
