The woman writhed and moaned .The smell of blood filled the air .Suddenly, the air was rent with a heartrending scream , as the final push came to shove .The tired nurse threw another blood soaked towel into the dustbin , and murmured encouragingly .Another nurse wiped the woman`s brow , with a white abdominal swab.
A black glistening , hairy ball emerged from between the woman`s parted legs , slowly, excruciatingly rotating.
The world slowed down.The sounds silenced. The birthing took place in slow motion, like a miracle .
The interns gasped , frozen.
With an experienced hand , the nurse supported the head and the slippery shoulders , and turned and shouted -“Clamp!!Cord clamp!!”
The reverie was broken. People ran about , urgently, purposefully.
