Testimonial for Shari Aizenman
My daughter, Meredith, a recent med school grad, did her research and decided that a normal birth with no medication was best for her and her baby. Because I am a chiropractor and have a strong foothold in the Georgia birth community, she asked me to recommendation a doula. I told her that you, Shari Aizenman, were the doula that I wish that I had had at my birth. I knew you would act as Meredith's advocate in the hospital and protect her like a mother bear with her cub. I knew your advice would be based on the best information available, because you know the research. I knew your extensive experience would be Meredith's best guide. The day of the birth (5/31/14) your strong leadership, Shari, instilled both inspiration and confidence in our team of mom, hubby and grandmother. When Meredith was going through the worst pain, I was afraid. But I looked at you and found reassurance. Meredith had a hard but wonderful birth. It was a peak experience for the mom, dad and me. One that has changed us forever. Baby Caroline was healthy and alert from the very first moment. Given the baby's less than perfect head position, I know that if you had not been there, Shari, it could easily have been a very different outcome. I owe you a debt I can never repay and I love you for giving us such a great gift.
