'Fontanelle' is about 'soft spots', birth, women and those whose voices are often unheard. Helen has long family connections to care: aunt a midwife from 1941, her mum worked at a Transplant hospital, and her Dad passed down a quirky nature. All these influence her reasons to become a nurse and midwife. This debut collection is her 'take' on the complexities and joys of care, duty, burnout and friendships.
