I also wonder how I would have managed with some of the work I've had done. It's possible that without my c-sections my children and myself may have survived but I dread to think what would have been the result of my dislocated hip and broken ball joint! Of course, on the flip side, I wouldn't have been playing netball so that injury may have been caused and cured by modern times :) I hope you enjoy this book when you read it.

I should know - as a pharmacist, we still used to get prescriptions for it! No need to enter me in the giveaway Ceri. It's a great story and a fitting end to the series.
