In May 2024 following a devastating diagnosis, when we were referred to Maternal Foetal Medical Team we were overwhelmed and confused. Dr Jan and the specialist nurses treated us with so much care and explained our diagnosis and pathway for birth.
We birthed our stillborn daughter, Cora at 22 weeks and 1 day. Maddy, Jade, Brittney were the beautiful midwives that guided us through the 18 hour labour with kindness, calmness and sympathy. We were supported by the perinatal loss team Sonya and Genevieve who showed compassion while they guided us through the aftermath and our grief.
Through a devastating loss of our daughter, we have been shown nothing but kindness and compassion from all midwifes, doctors, nurses, support services staff, pathology, social work and perinatal loss team. The foot prints, ashes and memory box we will treasure for ever. They were also flexible and considerate as we were country clients travelling a distance to Perth.
The work you all do is truly remarkable, and although a sad journey we wouldn't wish to anyone, we were in such excellent hands with the beautiful clinicians at KEMH. Your kindness and care will always be remembered. x
