A Thin Line Between Death and Birth

Nigeria, Africa’s most populous country, is composed of more than 250 ethnic groups and  has one of the highest child mortality rates. I just got done watching The Edge of Joy, a documentary that takes a look at the maternal deaths in Nigeria, and I want to share this moving documentary.

“The Edge of Joy follows doctors, midwives, nurses, and public health educators as they fight maternal death on every front, from preemptive family planning education to expanded blood transfusion services.”
