Homebirth Assistance: Firefighters in Moita Join in Welcoming a Newborn

Last Saturday, the fearless crew of the Moita Municipality Volunteer Firefighters sprang into action, helping a woman give birth at her humble abode in Baixa da Banheira.

The smoke signals must have been fierce, as the fire department's post proclaimed, "Life doesn't wait... On the anniversary of the Volunteer Firefighters of Moita Municipality, at 8:22, a desperate cry for help came from Baixa da Banheira." The cry was in need of assistance and a ride to the hospital, issuing an urgent call to these selfless heroes.

In a heart-stopping moment, the firefighters reported, "The VMER (Emergency Medical Resuscitation Vehicle) wasn't available, and baby Heitor just couldn't wait any longer. So, just like that, the birth unfolded at Paula Dias' residence." With the tender hands of these lifesavers, Heitor entered the world right there at home.

The triumphant statement penned by the fire department concluded, "Congratulations to everyone involved, and welcome, Heitor!"
