| My friend Jessica |
I’d literally avoided what could have been a fatal accident on my way to Ho. I was rushing to get to the hospital in time to see my friend Anna, who was having her baby on my birthday!
When
I got to the ward, there were about five other women in various stages
of labor and undress. I was not happy. There was palpable pain in reach.
Women endure way too much. I think I might have changed my mind about
motherhood in that moment. As I chattered away to my friend to mask my
nervousness, a woman stripped completely naked and began to shriek. It
was like ten banshee’s in there.
