„Since then I’ve heard of other babies that came backward and Mama says it is because there is something crooked in the mother’s spirit, that her faith is not strong and God is giving her a trial to set her on the right path. The only doctor that a pregnant woman is allowed to see in Pineridge is Doc Levi, who didn’t go to a school to learn about medicine. His father had the gift and passed it on to his son. Besides, Mama has told me many times that the Gentile doctors cannot be trusted. They only want women to have three or four children and they will give you a hysterectomy or some other abomination to render you infertile during an exam. So, what woman who wants to fulfil her duty to her husband and the Lord would take such a risk?”
(S. 22)
