I had a miscarriage around 6 weeks and had to call the community midwifery team to cancel a pre-arranged appointment. I did this a few days after miscarrying and was still very emotional at the time of call.
I spoke with a community midwife called Kate who was lovely and therefore I wanted to highlight this. I felt she was caring and considerate despite me being a total stranger crying on the other end of the phone. She appeared empathetic and ensured I had someone with me for emotional support.
She also signposted me back into the team should I have needed any more support. I want to say thank you to Kate as she gave me the reassurance/support I needed at that moment, making a really difficult task not so difficult.
"Good phone call"
