“5:30 a.m. my cell phone rings… it is one of my clients. She is in the hospital bleeding and doesn’t understand what the doctors are telling her. Can I come please? I rush to the hospital and find out she had a miscarriage. What could I do other than to be there to support, console and interpret for her.”
