Patience, Midwife, Only One in a Play

Prompt: Patience, a Midwife, only one in a play. Joy posted a loaded question about Patience, the midwife, being the only one in a play in this world, are we acting, and how do we feel about midwives.

Sometimes, I am playing a role and a character asking what my purpose in life is. I worked in Nursing, passing out meds but never worked in a hospital. Midwives. A nurse at work had all her babies delivered by a Midwife and she was happy. The nurse delivered my baby. My doctor had diarrhea. Another nurse I worked with said he was drunk. Do I believe in Midwives? I don't know. I couldn't trust my doctor.

Patience. I have never read her story. Midwives played a big role.

I am living reality as I am getting through my knee replacement. I still hurt. My husband is my nurse right now and I am doing a few things on my own.
