Update: including some private donations, I have met my goal and then some. I will be able to replace my lost supplies and also get started on rebuilding my stash of extras: herbs, homeopathy, rebozos. I am so deeply honored by this community support. You are all amazing!
Last night, my car was broken into and my birth and resuscitation bags were stolen! These crucial supplies are the backbone of my home birth practice, and I have to replace them immediately. The inventory includes:
Medical instruments - delivery sets, cord banders, suture sets, ring forceps, assorted
Gloves, gauze, alcohol wipes, catheters, flashlight, cord bands
Meds: Pitocin, methergine, cytotec, terbutaline, TXA
Iv fluids, tubing, antibiotics, Iv start kits
Auto blood pressure cuff, pulse ox
Suture, lidocaine, steristrips, numbing spray
Needles, syringes
Resuscitation supplies: oxygen tank, tubing, adult face masks, 2 neonatal ambu bags, cutting board, Laryngeal mask airways, Laryngoscope, et tubes, catheters, epinephrine, delee suction devices
In addition, I also have to repair the damage done to my window for my car to be in working order to get me to births.
I am reaching out to friends and community for help so that I can replace these crucial supplies as quickly as possible. Delivering babies healthy and safely during Covid-19 has presented so many challenges, and this new setback during a stressful time has been demoralizing.
Thank you for contributing and sharing, it means the world to me!
