Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was 18 when I began nursing training, and I had to have blood taken for the first time. I asked the nurse to take it from my right arm, as I thought I might faint if she took it from my left. She totally ignored my request. #2 I was sent to the sewing room to be measured up for uniforms. The process took up most of the day, but I was finally given a start date of September if I was successful. I was very proud of myself. #3 I was excited to be a nurse, and I couldn't wait until September to start training. I was accepted into Charles Frears School of Nursing, and was to report there at nine o'clock in the morning on the set date. #4 I was at home with my mother when the newscaster announced that Elvis Presley was dead. I couldn't believe it was true. The next day's newspapers confirmed the truth of the event, and for weeks there were tributes and discussions about what had caused his death.
