First cries of newborn babies are sweet music to them

There I was under the "Mundoza tree", our 'poshto' at the watering hole, known by the trade name Mavende Bar and bottle store. Where partakers of the illicit drink talk about going-for-one-one, they mean one after the other. A comedy of drinking. So, several of them glasses until imbibers measure their lengths instead of heights.
From the blue, a jittery and visibly frightened old woman showed up unpronounced. She did not mince her words, forget the explicit and implicit selection of words, she spoke candidly with no hold bars.
An expecting young woman from Ruwiza village across Lilstock Dam, on her way to Chinehasha Health Centre had failed the test and was birthing by the side of the footpath. The scare mongered old woman beat Fidippides at his game to seek professional help.
Two male nurses, dedicated health workers, call them what the doctor ordered, sprang into action. The two are male nurses with extensive midwifery experience (not middlemen).
The expecting young woman was hysterical, maybe a blend of pain and fear of the new arriving responsibility. On the road, anyone normal can fret over the occurrence.
She was like a petulant toddler throwing toys out of the pram. Do not forget Mother's Day, the reasons are times time. In no time, the quartet of two nurses, the mother and the new addition to humanity appeared in joyous mode and gait. These nurses at Chinehasha Health Centre are amazing and impressive.
Nightingales of today, unknown heroes. No formidable tree makes public its roots, it has to be someone. Mr Munjoma and Mr Dutiro made my day with that top-notch display of professionalism. Theirs was a 'calling' not mere job seeking. Keep up the good work guys. God is watching. Best regards.
