The Midwife From Hell

A month ago I submitted a release of medical records to Joann Falcon. I was requesting to see a copy of my medical records and the statement of the incident on the day my twins were born so that I may prepare myself for the Grievance meeting. You know analyze the statement and basically see her take of that day. Just the other day I received a letter from Joann's Midwife Lawyer Bobbi Moon that I am to pay for the medical records. PAY? PAY FOR WHAT? I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO GIVE HER ANOTHER DIME.  The lawyer discussed the fee in the letter. She stated that the rest of the documents requested like the incident report is for Joann's personal records only and they will not be released. Bobbi Moon also informed me that I am not to have any further contact with Joann and to make all further inquires to her "Attorney Bobbi Moon" So I said to myself this midwife is going to make me pay to receive my medical records as if I haven't paid enough. This is just down righ

Each state of midwives have developed a grievance board which is a midwife court system. If you have a complaint about a specific midwife you have to move forward on a written complaint. The board consist of CPM's of the state (most of the time the midwife in charge is whoever NARM appoints to run the state). Each state consist of a Midwife Association and every midwife from the state reports to the MMA when there is an issue or a complaint in process. Because NARM can not physically be in all states at one time they run their organization this way. When a family has a complaint it doesn't matter what the complaint is you have to PUT IT IN WRITING. First you will have to email the midwife association and advise them that you have a complaint against a midwife. They will then send you documents in the mail. In the documents will be a letter stating what the grievance board is and what their role is. The association will provide you with a complaint form and advise you to fil

I know that this may seem far fetched to some but in all reality this chapter of the blog," License to Kill"   is very real. Any midwife in any state can have a License to Kill. Licence to kill is the official sanction by a government or government agency to a particular operative or employee to initiate the use of lethal force in the delivery of their objectives, well known as a literary device used in espionage fiction. The initiation of lethal force is in comparison to the use of lethal force in self-defense or the protection of life. Think about it these midwives have the power to kill babies and not have to bare any consequences. I'm starting to think that maybe CPM's are apart of some type government population control agenda. Why I say this is because I have spoken with a lot of powerful people in Congress. I spoken with congressmen and women, relations and counsel women and men, attorneys and DA. They all say that this idea with midwives being crimi

Home birth took one of my children. I am no longer sad about it, I'M ANGRY. I am angry because MORE BABIES will die all in the name of home birth. These midwives can be dangerous. They are floating around all over these states and they are free to do whatever they want (even get away with murder). I was tricked into home birth and I am sad to say that I was silly and naive to trust a "WHITE WOMAN" to birth my twin baby girls. I should have took my luck in the hospital, although I know that the medical system is discriminatory passive with black women and babies also (past experiences prove this statement). My quality of care was undeniably careless but when I was pregnant the way I was treated by the midwife, I thought came along with home birth. I was sold the idea of home birth was non-medicated and in a natural atmosphere. I automatically assumed a midwife was a not just an extra hand in birth but a  natural teacher, herbalist, and nurse. I figured that if a woma

I know I told myself that I would not give up on this fight for my daughter Aminah. I fought for her when she was in the hospital severely brain damaged also. Even when everyone around me was telling that the situation was bad I still had some type of hope as I do now. Now I see how most women that have been affected by a midwife's incompetence and neglect stay hidden and don't come out because look at all the obstacles that a person must jump through to get someone to first pay attention, let alone care about the incident. This is such a sad case and the fight is getting a little overwhelming. This fight is consuming most of days. I guess its a part of me that doesn't want to let my Aminah go. After my daughter passed my mother told me to not go after people don't talk about it just let her go rest in peace. I'm like forget that mom these midwives are wrong and my daughter Aminah deserves justice. My mom said, "What justice are you talking about, Aminah ha

That is a really good question. Who has the real power to sanction a midwife and revoke her credentials? The state midwife association's don't even know who has the real power. If most of you women are reading and thinking that NARM has the power you are so WRONG! NARM is only responsible for continual education of these midwives. Can you believe that? After speaking with Shannon Anton for the NARM accountability department on the phone late last night. She tells me that NARM helps the state midwife associations with conducting grievance meetings for parent who have midwife complaints but she advised me that they don't have the true power to take away the license. She informed me that this would be a state level issue. Shannon actually told me that the grievance meeting is to help the midwife/s contribute more knowledge and scenarios to their profile help the midwife, definitely not to punish or discipline the midwife for actions, its to make her practice better. So let
