JLHillunnsjjnrt Hospital JOSilltaiuspiirt, a. Dear Mother and Dad, Finally, after three long years, I have attained my goal in becoming a graduate nurse. They have been years of struggle and hard work, but what I have gained from them has made it all worth while. You will probably never forget how vou shared my gripes and depressions. The times when I came home dis- couraged and wanting to quit, your reassurance that things would go better next time, sent me back for another try— and I succeeded. As I look back now, I realize that there have been times when I have not always been considerate or shown the ap- preciation to you that was due, for then I had gone my own way with the indifference and callousness of vouth. Your patience and understanding have indeed guided me through these three years of completing my nurses training. And so, Mother and Dad, vou certainly deserve much of the credit in helping me to reach this ultimate goal —a graduate nurse. Your loving Daughter,
