The Road Less Travelled
Out and about on rural visits this afternoon – just my car, my kit, and me. No phone signal. No 4G. When I first started doing visits like this, I felt quite vulnerable and alone. No-one really checks in to see how you got on or if you got home ok at the end of the day. But you get used to it after a while – that’s just the way things are. Similarly, as the only band 5 midwife in my area, when I first qualified I felt quite vulnerable and alone. No-one else was walking the same path or “driving the same road” as me. But you get used to it after a while – that’s just the way things are.
