I just feel so appreciative and so lucky when I, like you, know his little crinkles in his eyes, when he smiles, and but then I have one niece. But it was even surprisingly comforting and wonderful to not for one second worry about finances.
Imagine not having to worry about medical bills when welcoming a new life into the world. That's exactly what Ingrid experienced living in Canada. In this episode of 'Birds In A Tree', Bridget Manley sits down with Ingrid to discuss her unexpected journey into motherhood and the unique benefits of Canada's universal healthcare system. Ingrid never saw herself as a mother, but when the desire struck, it became all-consuming.
Her story is a testament to the power of parental love and the support of a healthcare system that prioritizes families. She shares how, even when her newborn son faced health challenges, the financial burden was nonexistent thanks to Canada's publicly funded healthcare. This episode isn't just about healthcare, though. Bridget and Ingrid delve into the contrasts between life in Canada and the United States, touching on political and social issues that shape parenting experiences in both countries.
They also explore the dynamics of long-distance family relationships and the differences between rural and urban living. Through Ingrid's eyes, you'll gain a fresh perspective on what it means to raise a child in a country that values its citizens' well-being. Whether you're a parent, a soon-to-be parent, or simply curious about different healthcare systems, this conversation offers valuable insights and heartfelt moments.
