Jordmora
Show quick summaryHide summary
What it's about: On a February night in Lofoten an avalanche closes the E10 and a storm grounds the air ambulance, just as Kamila goes into fast labour with her second child in a house outside Reine. Midwife Solrun, nearly sixty, drives behind a snowplough through the storm to a kitchen with a panicking fisherman, a sleeping three-year-old and a baby who will not wait for the road to open.
Solrun hadde vært jordmor i trettitre år, og hun hadde lært at babyer aldri tar hensyn til værmeldingen. Hun jobbet på fødestua i Gravdal, men hun bodde i Reine, nesten helt ytterst i Lofoten. Den februarnatta lå hun i senga og hørte vinden kaste snø mot veggene, da telefonen ringte litt over elleve.
