Born for Life: A Midwife in AfricaAuthor Julie Watson shares her life-changing experiences as a midwife birthing babies at a missionary hospital in a remote area of Zambia not far from the Angola border. She is one of two nurses / midwives in the maternity ward. It is a five-month volunteer assignment, where fortunately, her husband is able to accompany her and plug himself into construction and repair work for the same hospital. I can’t think of anything more exciting for a couple to experience together!I could relate to her memoir on several levels. But namely from having visited a missionary hospital in Kenya, I was immediately drawn to the topic. Her account centers on many of the local patients’ lives on a dual level. Her response to crisis and the women’s responses. She also shares successes. Because I, too, lived through a problem-pregnancy overseas, I grieved with these women at the many challenges they face in their pregnancies.I read the Kindle Version and didn’t know there was a glossary until I reached the end of the book so I would like to read a hard copy and flip to the glossary for better understanding of some of the medical terms the author focuses on.Watson does give glimpses of life outside the hospital on occasion, and as an avid traveler I love those moments of discovery.Her passion for the local women and completing her duties to the best of her ability comes through the pages. I so admire her dedication to her profession. Her title, Born for Life, fits the memoir perfectly. Though the line between life and death of these mothers and babies seems to hang on a thread, reading this memoir gives me a feel for how the women in this culture survive and move forward in their circumstances. As women, we need to connect. Pregnancy losses / challenges are experienced in every culture. We can learn from each other.I will definitely pass this slice-of-life memoir on to others!
I really enjoyed reading this day to day account of life in Africa as a midwife. Gives a good account of what life was like there.Was a bit repetitive in explanations at times.
I received this book from the author, Julie Watson, as an Advanced Review Copy in return for an honest review. I was sent it because of my connection with Africa, so I will admit I was already pre-disposed to enjoy it. However, I was more than just fascinated by this account of the author's five months volunteering as a midwife at a remote mission hospital in Zambia. What an amazing experience and what a marvellous thing she and her husband did by going to Kalene hospital in northern Zambia as self-funded volunteers. I have huge respect for people who make this kind of commitment. It must have taken immense courage to step out of their comfort zone and into a situation where they had none of the trappings of 'normal' life and then had to cope with so many life and death situations.The book covers the lead-up to their departure and all the bureaucratic issues involved with gaining the necessary permits to work in Zambia in the medical field. Julie Watson tells the story in a matter of fact way without exaggeration or drama, but the reader can feel the frustration involved. Keeping patience when faced with African 'time' is something I could relate to easily. Once the administration nightmares are over, the couple fly north to Kalene and I was immediately plunged into the world of hospital and volunteer life at the maternity department of this outlying mission hospital. With a team of dedicated doctors, midwifes, experienced native assistants and volunteers, the maternity ward deals with a constant stream of women and a daily battle with crises.Women often arrive at the hospital ill and in danger and there are inevitable tragedies. Babies die with much more frequency than they do in a first world country where pregnant women receive such great care. However, apart from the places where I felt the author's sorrow and pain over the deaths (which inevitably reminded her of her own loss), most would think she found it easy to adapt. But it must have been difficult, challenging and painful. Julie Watson's writing style is quite formal, so it was only close to the end when I realised how much stress she'd been under throughout the whole five months. It's just astonishing that she coped with it given all she had to face.For anyone who has some medical knowledge and is interested in how women give birth and cope in rural Africa, it is a fascinating read and a testament to the courage of African women. There is quite a bit of medical terminology, which is explained in a glossary at the end of the book. There is also a lot of repetition, but that's the nature of the job. However, there are some interesting glimpses of life in the surrounding villages and the couple's social life as volunteers. That said, most of the book is focused on the women, babies and medical staff at the maternity ward.After reading it, I am convinced this is a very important book as it records so much about what happens at a mission hospital and the conditions of pregnant women in Africa. I don't personally know of another memoir that deals with this specific situation. Although it didn't tell me as much about that part of Zambia as I'd hoped, it told me much more about the problems faced by the courageous, warm-hearted African women and the loving commitment of those who volunteer to help them. Hats off, Julie Watson. I wish you much success with this book and I am sure you will have it. It will be well deserved.
If you are intrigued by Birth stories beyond the modern hospital setting you will enjoy this book.An interesting look into healthcare in rural Africa.
Thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, it gave great insight into what birthing is like, an honest and warm hearted portrayal of Julie’s experiences in Africa
This memoir of midwife Julie Watson’s time in Africa touches every part of the heart and alternates between joy and sorrow. Joy for the mothers and healthy babies, and sorrow for the mothers who lose their babies.A love for women and their babies sent Julie to Africa to fight the statistics provided by the World Health Organization: 2.7 million babies die in the first month of life, and another 2.6 million babies are stillborn. Some 830 women a day die from complications during pregnancy and childbirth. Julie knew that most of these deaths were preventable and she wanted to use her skill, wisdom, and ability to give as many African mothers and babies the chance at life that they deserved.Julie’s book opens up life in another country that will stagger the reader with its hardships, shortages, privation—and yet—the fullness of life and joy exhibited by African families in spite of the limits they face in daily living. Julie found herself stretched to and beyond her limits in her endeavor to save the mothers and children entrusted to her care in spite of the scarcity of medical supplies and equipment.Born for Life Midwife in Africa is a book with staying power—easy to ponder and hard to forget after the last word in the last sentence on the last page of the book.
