´óÏó´«Ã½

Bombs falling, Lady was a young midwife. Lady was asked if she would attend a young girl. A bus took the midwife to the crossroads, then she would be met by someone and she would be taken to the farm.
She got off at the crossroads and no one was there. Suddenly a man and a dog appeared out of the bushes and she was taken to a nearby farm.
A young girl was in advanced labour. The baby was born but there were problems with the placenta. The midwife had given all the help she could and no doctors were available at the time and the patient was bleeding to death. The midwife diagnosed a succtureiate lobe — an extra lobe, that is one in a million cases. Eventually it released and came away. The midwife got the doctor in the early hours of the morning and he checked everything was ok. The doctor had never experienced this before in his entire career.
The proud grandma gave the midwife and doctor ½ dozen eggs each before they left — gold dust in those days.
