Review Midwives' May 1st Demonstration against the closure of the Kamenz delivery ward:

"What a powerful, emotional demonstration that was! ♥️

We would like to thank @buendnis_zukunft_kamenz for organizing this event! Thank you for this initiative, the strong words, and for mobilizing so many people. You are the kind of people who make a difference!

Thank you to Mayor @michael.preuss_kamenz for this incredible work at top speed! Since Thursday, he and his wonderful city council members have been trying to find all possible options for the preservation of the delivery room and gynecology department.

Thank you to Jonas from @safeclubkmz. He shared the concerns of young people with us and how bad it is when all young people move away because they don't feel secure in rural areas!

Thank you to Ms. Larraß from @praxisfrauengesundheitkm. She shared kind words about the good cooperation with our gynecology and obstetrics department and is concerned about this large gap in care that will be present in Kamenz from June 1st.

Thank you to the dear speaker from @mother_hood_ev; she stood with full strength for the freedom of choice of birthplace and the rights to good gynecological care!

Thank you to former Mayor Mr. Dantz. He also reported concerns and gave strengthening, motivating words for the fight against the closure of delivery rooms!

Thank you also to Kristina from @haus.der.begegnung.e.v. She shared the perspective of young people and uncertainties for the generation that is now planning for offspring.

Thank you to the police officers who were there for security!

And finally, we want to thank all of you! All 500 people who were there, who were loud yet respectful. People who came to stand up for women and children! We saw you, every single one. The tears, the encouraging glances, the applause! You were strong and incredibly motivating!

We thank you with all our hearts! ♥️

We are midwives. With heart and soul. We feel our profession. We feel you. We never give up. For you, for us, for everyone!"
