Great Quote

An amazing quote from Gretchen Humphries, the ICAN Advocacy Director.

"Lying at the start of a fundamentally business relationship is never ok, it's fraud. Manipulating a woman to agree to something she's already said she doesn't want by making unsupportable and vague accusations of danger to her unborn child is inexcusable."



A little about Gretchen : Gretchen Humphries is the Advocacy Director for ICAN, the ICAN email list administrator, and co-leader of the ICAN of Ann Arbor Chapter. She is also a Veterinarian, working in emergency and critical care at the Animal ER Center in Southeastern Michigan. She has written extensively on birth topics and many of her essays can be found at Birth Matters. She’s the mother of 4 wonderful children and the wife of a man who realized how much they’d both lost with the cesarean, after his third child was born at home.She’s had one cesarean for breech twins and then 2 wonderful HBACs.
