Tuesday Night Dear Mom: My letters to you during these past three years haven ' t been much more than a compiled list of my gripes and complaints and how I was being overworked. Then I ' d go for weeks without writing explaining that I just didn ' t have time unless, of course, I ran out of money, which called for a special delivery letter home. I don ' t think I ever took time out to tell you what it ' s really like being a student nurse. To help you understand what I ' ve been doing and to make up for all those letters I didn ' t write, I ' ll just send my annual along to you and tell you some- thing about our hospital and school of Nursing. There were lots of times when I thought I just couldn ' t take this business of nursing any more but you always came through with some wise encouragement and maybe some homemade cookies. Mom, I feel like they ought to give my diploma to you; ' cause if it hadn ' t been for you I ' d never have made it. I remember reading in a book once where some man said, God has a special little place in heaven for Mothers. Now I know what he meant. . . Page Six
