It is good that this maternity hospital was consecrated. My niece gave birth there two years ago, she said that the doctors are attentive. And the saying that all sorrows are forgotten is true - as soon as the child is placed in your arms, you no longer remember anything.

My niece gave birth at that same hospital last year and said the staff really took good care of her. Nice to hear they blessed the place. The part about forgetting the pain the moment you hold the baby is so true.

It's good that this maternity ward was consecrated. My godmother was there last year in pathology, she said that after the consecration it seemed to be calmer in the wards. And the truth is, as soon as you take the baby in your arms, all those months of torment immediately fly out of your head.

I'm glad that the second maternity hospital was consecrated. My sister gave birth there last year and said that the doctors were calm and the department was clean. And I’ve seen it myself about how pain is forgotten the moment a child is picked up.
