Yesterday, I asked a Ghanaian woman if she thought that there was a shortage of maternity hospitals in her country and this is what she told me, …….
‘If aal a want is t*av a baby an a' go t*a trained and licensed midwife’s shelter, just like ma mother did when she had me.... t..e...n whaaa* is aaal tis media politickin t*at Ghana has shorta* o* *ospitals? We’re gettin* the services we need, and eatin* healt*y food, takin* minimal or none of t*ose family planning tablets ,so we don* need ceaserian ……’
I never pursued the topic further but I agree that she had one very heavy point…..don't you ?
