Book Reviews of Diary of a Midwife

Book Review: A great book
Summary: 5 Stars

This book fascinated me. I am really amazed at Juliana Van Olphen-Fehr's seemingly neverending strength and energy in becoming a mid-wife in the first place, and afterward all she has done to help mothers and their babies and give them the best care possible. I was shocked at what hurdles she had to take when it came to physicians, who not only didn't support her but evened threatened her existence as a midwife. There is definitely a lot wrong with healthcare in America. Money is what counts, and not really the people's needs. I think this is pretty scary! How refreshing it was to read Mrs. Fehr's story, whose love for the mothers and babies she cared for show between each line!
