My baby sister was born on October 4, 1929. I was almost five and my parents tried to prepare me for the blessed event that was about to happen. Instead, I said, No, I dont want a baby brother or a baby sisterI would really like a gramophone!
Well, there was my baby sister, cute little Lois Doreen and not a gramophone, and I helped mom take care of her.

A young boy was admitted to hospital on a ward with mainly young men in their late teens. There was always some teasing between these men and the student nurses.
