Patrick/Shelagh  »  Call the Midwife

Your voice touched my soul. It was like everyone else's melted away and it was just you.

I am the daughter of a man who drank. I am the daughter of a man who fought in a war. I heard him yelling at night. And I saw him crying. But I knew how to make him smile. I knew how to make him better. And there are only two things that could do that. Me. And a bottle of Scotch. I became a nurse. And a midwife. I was needed. And I needed them. Because every time I delivered a baby… .. I was right in the heart of a happy family for one or two hours. No matter that I always have to go home on my own. No matter that… the one thing that makes me feel better… is a glass of Scotch. Or something like it. There are so many things like it. Looking back… .. it seems to me my father was quite unadventurous. Do I have to say it now? My name is Beatrix. But people call me Trixie. And I am an alcoholic.
