My interpretation of Patsy's story, before and after Nonnatus.
The result of my realisation that, in the world of BBC period-dramas, Ada Russell and Ethel Bennett would have been working at The London at the same time that Sister Monica Joan would have been working a few miles away at Nonnatus House. Set in the summer of 1910. The story's title is a tribute to the obstetrician whose campaigning led to the enacting of the 1902 Midwives Act.
The tale of a young, free-spirit's path to, and through, the religious life.
As she prepares to send another young woman to the altar, Sister Julienne reflects on motherhood, and mothering. A few vignettes exploring missing or extending scenes from the 2021 Christmas Special - SPOILERS.
Patrick opens up about his past to the only person whom he feels able to do so, and embarks on a journey towards finding the healing he needs. Definitely an M. NOW COMPLETE.
Shelagh is woken in the early hours of the morning. Written to be either a continuation of "Mother's Gifts" or (Spoiler warning) the end result of Patrick and Shelagh's conversation in Series 3 Episode 6. I know which version I prefer, but I'll let your imagination and HTMG's wonderful writing decide. One shot.
A story of Shelagh and Sister Julienne's relationship, beginning with a missing scene from Series 3 Episode 4. I'm just borrowing these lovely characters.
This is a scene which I've really wanted to write, following on from Series 3, Episode 3. Shelagh and Timothy's relationship develops whilst Patrick is out on call one night. I don't own these characters, I'm just borrowing them! One shot
Shelagh copes with the challenges of life brought by a much older husband, absent friends and grown up children.
Season 3 Spoilers. Shelagh and the other nurses go out for an evening of fun together. This story is the aftermath of their evening. This is my first attempt at FanFiction, so reviews would be great
