Mother's love

She was not convinced, although her gynecologist was, that she should have antibiotics. She was willing to suffer, rather than take the medicine. The gynecologist assured that the antibiotic was mild and that it would not harm the baby in the womb. She was still in doubt....

And then the gynecologist added casually, "...for us, the mother is more important than the child, anyway."

She never visited that gynecologist again.
