When I reflect upon my 9 month transformation, I recall the largest catalyst to my growth, my midwife. Dena knew exactly what I needed. She was gentle when I was emotional yet honest when I needed reality. She helped me discover my inner courage. She guided me through the greatest transformation in my life. For this she will never be forgotten. She is a part of my son's life story forever. His story begins with the miraculous adventure of a 10 lb baby, vbac homebirth."-- J.M., March 2009
