Jennifer,
 I love the term "med-wifery"!!
 you are so right on when you said:
<If we are to work together to make a difference, we have to uphold who we
are, not who the medical model has told us they expect us to be--otherwise,
we simply collude with the abusive, brutal system that currently exists.>

But oh the toll it takes, and the energy.
We are winning, aren't we?
