  Mother of three, Triplicane

  She delivered me in 1978, and my daughter in 2005, and told me both times to stop being afraid because fear makes labour harder. When I could not pay for my second baby, she waved the bill away and handed me a packet of peppermints. Doctor Amma was the kindest authority I ever met.
