journaling:
40 years ago, these hallways were not as quiet as they are today. We heard everything - from the painful cry of a mother in her last stages of labor to the sweet gasps of a first breath as the baby entered the world. 40 years ago, we were sentry to a labor & delivery ward, a recovery wing, and a wellness clinic for babies and mommies alike. 40 years ago, as Bangkok was facing its bloodiest day in history, we welcomed a blue-eyed, blond-haired baby into the world. Today, that baby is a woman and has come back for a visit. As she snaps her pictures for her scrapbooks, we stand proud. Proud of our role in protecting the mothers and babies from the heat of the sun and the downpour of rain. We stand as a testament to the humble service of a few missionaries who had the vision of a wellness clinic which served both missionaries and locals together.
