We don't live in a vacuum. We eat what we reap, and we reap what we sow. Obviously if the legal system were changed, if our representatives were elected in order to change this legal morass, then this would not be an issue. I have very little empathy for Ms. Rickard. This is the environment that WE created, and the environment WE must now live in, until that time that it is changed. Maybe, just maybe, the chunks of marble falling off the RIGHT side of the statue holding the scales of justice at the Supreme Court is prophetic. (http://news.yahoo.com/i/701;_ylt=AiiM6qU7iLvq53pUAItImqQD5gcF;_ylu=X3oDMTA2 MnU4czRtBHNlYwNzbg--) Who knows? However, Rickard did the right thing. She got up and moved. Now maybe we can move the whole country.

So Rickard is moving back to be near the hospital where she delivered her other children without surgery and plans to try again with the baby she is expecting at the end of January. 1. Who has the right to allow women to do anything? 2. Who is going to stop these women from having a VBAC? 3. Who is going to listen at doors for signs of a labouring woman and then drag them to hospital? 4. Who is going to hold them down and anaesthetise them without being sued for assault?

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
