“Dr Hannah had, after all, continually stressed to them that, in his opinion, she should be seen as a matter of urgency. Now here she was on her way at last, only a few days after the first of April, her favourite time for giving birth. Instinctively, she put her hand up and grabbed the hedge to steady herself as a bout of coughing racked her. Then she breathed in deeply and was continuing to make her way slowly up Restalrig Road when she heard a voice call out her name from across the road. It ...was her mother-in-law, Mary Glass, who had obviously been waiting for her to pass that way so that she could open the window and let the whole neighbourhood know from her shouts that Dinah was going off to the hospital and so needed all the luck Mary could wish her. Waving back to let Mary know she’d heard, Dinah walked on towards the YMCA where she saw her mother already waiting for her.
