A baby is born

A couple of days ago, one of the caretakers for a patient (who was 8 months pregnant) had pains in her stomach but thought nothing of it...until her waters broke. Lucky her - she happened to be in THE best medical facility Liberia has to offer - the Mercy Ship Africa Mercy - and our nurses managed to find a mid-wife amongst them, who delivered a little girl! I understand that both mum and baby are doing well. The baby has been called Nancy. In 2006 a similar thing happened on the Anastasis, and the baby was called Noah. Olly
