Yeah. Dr. Clark, you say a lot of things that I talk about often whenever I am conversing with other professionals in the field. And something that I noticed about my care and every other survivor that I have encountered is that we are not given advice. all of the information that is needed for us to make good, well-rounded decisions for ourselves. That's the key part.

You go into a birth center and let's say I had a previous cesarean section. We're being told that this is pretty low risk information. But what they're not saying is one in 200 women have a rupture. And if you rupture in an out-of-hospital setting, we may not be able to get you to the care that you need in time to save your life and your baby's lives.

And that's imperative information for us to know. I was a first-time mom. I knew nothing about what was happening to my body. I knew nothing about pregnancy, labor, and delivery. I trusted my providers to tell me everything that I needed to know. And when red flags started to pop up throughout my care, I was always told by my providers that this was some variation of normal.

Malik's Law provides us with information that we previously don't have. We're often, as consumers of midwives, met with slogans such as, we are just as safe as any hospital and any OBGYN. And then it is up to the provider or the birth center to give us statistics, statistics that cannot be found through any national database. it leaves consumers really just relying on the word of their mouth.
