| Birthing Project Update: August "07 Hello everyone...Thank you for thinking of us. I think we will
be going (to Honduras) Nov 25 -Dec 2nd. If any of you have pregnancy
and/or birth related vitamins, medicines or medical supplies
that you want to share...please contact me.
Also, we have invited three of the midwives and Gloria (the
Honduras Birthing Project Director) to our National Training
confeence in San Diego, Ca October 18-21. As you know,the cost
for each woman is about $1200. If you would like to contribute
to their tax deductible scholarship fund, please contact me
for details. We are all so excited about this opportunity for
them to come to our side of the world.
During our last visit, the midwives formed the Colon Midwives
Association...with a membership of 86 midwives. So our tasks
for the next year is to support them in identifying and accessing
their training needs; designing an appropriate evaluation tool;
incorporating them into the medical teams and connecting them
to their peers globally.
What a wonderful world when we all work together. Blessings,
Kathryn and The Birthing Project |
