The Dark Side of Nursing
Teresa's Narative: Early memories.
Teresa the second youngest youngest of nine children.
Decides to go nursing after a car accident at the age of eight.
Excerpt of Poem from book (1)
Why do you speak to me that way dear?
Why are your eyes so cold?
You moved the gold post, raised the bar,
despite after doing what Ihave been told.
Excerpt of poem (2)
Her eyes devour your grief and pain,
She steals your sleep - your loss her gain
She talks and throws her weight around
Her prey the fox and she the hound
"Re-examine all that you
have been told, dismiss that
which insults your soul."
