sci-roots or NURSING One hundred sixty PROBABLY it was the aura of glamour and romance that surrounds the pro- fessions of nursing, that induced many of us to enter this field of medical endeavor. Emotionally, we were beguiled by the thought of aiding the dis- tressed, of becoming integral parts of the noble field of Medicine, of being a professional woman-a Registered Nurse. Curiously, three years of terrible drudgery-mixed with actual nursing of patients, always with strict super- vision and almost army discipline, has left our early illusions unimpaired. Rather, the very things which at first seemed so undignifying became the bulwark of effective nursing care, and thereby embellished the idea that as nurses we were carrying on a noble profession. Surrounded by suffering and disease, we are supposedly cyncial and hard boiled, but personal observation of the pain and despair of the sick has somehow left us with the thought that there is nothing so terrible as death, nothing so grand as being able to help forestall the Grim Reaper. Patients may be considered impersonally, but each patient is a personal problem, and we are never allowed to forget that our greatest task is to give comfort, both spiritually and physically. Medical students find ready sympathy from nurses, since we are sub- jected to the same lectures by the same doctors. Of couse, some allowance is made for the fact that our studying time is limited by nursing care, and we are not so vigorously held accountable for small details, and unimportant generalities. However, we do feel that our theoretical work is beautifully har- monized with our practical work, and we sympathize, somewhat, with the medical students who cannot combine the two, but first has one and then the other.
