The head nurse was nearing retirement, she had seen just about everything come through the hospital’s labor and delivery unit and always remained calm and unruffled.
An eighteen-year-old in labor was having a lot of pain, writhing on the bed, fighting her contractions, swearing, and refusing to consider epidural analgesia.
