Catching Babies

Dr. Gold didn't want to be a doctor, but had her options limited by her family. She trained in medicine before there was awareness of sexual harassment and when teaching medicine by shaming was the norm. As hard as that was by itself, she carried the responsibility of having children in medical school and single parenting through residency, as well as taking care of her family members while in training. Through all of this she held on to her humanity and connection to her patients. She became part of the fabric of their experience and they became part of the fabric of her life. She used her intuition and hands to treat and heal women, and in return they taught her the lessons in life she needed to grow. This is a compilation of her stories and the culmination of wisdom she acquired from caring for women.
