Hi All, just wanted to share. Today I met a doctor who has given up her job because she can't cope with it anymore. She was training as an OB and started out with ambitions to change the world. It didn't happen and she got stress-related illnesses, so she chucked it in. She had all kinds of views on breastfeeding and natural childbirth (she'd fit in well on here, I think) and although not terribly well informed, she had such a thirst for knowledge. She said that no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't "fit in" in the medical profession in UK. I felt so sad. Things will never change if doctors like her can't get to the top of their professions and get to the point where they actually have the *power* to change things. :-( -- Anna H. mailto: [log in to unmask] http://www.ratbag.demon.co.uk/anna/ *********************************************** The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(TM) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
