Mickey's wisdom, understanding, insight and inspired ability to make the seemingly complex, simple, changed my life. I am eternally grateful for her tireless work. Mickey's mission was a big one - to change the world through better birthing, and ...... 'You did it'. Much love

Dearest Mickey,
Thank you for tirelessly doing all the wonderful work for birthing. We are very blessed to have you. God bless you and rest in place.

Marie you inspired me to be a HypnoBirthing practitioner 18 years ago and have helped many mums, dads and their babies to have the most amazing births. This includes my two daughters giving birth to my four grandsons.
A very special gift that you shared.
Wherever you are now have fun. Much love Sheila
