how nice to read that small communities in scotland are getting to keep their local hospitals. over here their closing rural hospitals down-even maternity units are closing they say it costs too much to keep them open for 90 to 100 births par annum--result emergency dashes for up to 100kms to give birth!

Carol, that sounds very like here...well not here in Orkney, but here in the UK. A&E and mattie departments are falling like flies. A fairly recent cunning plan was to shut Wick mattie unit and send women to Inverness, a not inconsiderable distance, especially in winter.

FC:thank god i can'tand too old) to produce more offsprigs!! daughter was supposed to be born in Montpellier-we were living in St Chely d'Apcher 300kms north--i decided no way was i going to leave hubby for some days so decided to have the baby in local hospital---beleive or not it was really an old folks home with three double bedrooms for mothers and babbies and a delivery room!! I tooik a hellava risk giving birth there no incubators or anything,but it was good--i always saw the same midwife throughout my pregnancy, which i think is brilliant--and when daughter decided to make her way into the world(the day the doc said she would) it was good-easy i woke up at 4h30 went to the hospital and mlle was born at 6h15--no way i could have been at a real mattie unit in that space of time--when will rthe powers that be start to listen to the wishes of common people??
