SAIRAANHOITAJAN MAAILMASTA
S. MANNERHEIM
SISÄLLYS:
A seasoned nurse looks back on her years among the bustling corridors of a London children’s hospital at the height of the Great War. In a series of vivid, personal sketches she captures the atmosphere of a ward where laughter, tears, and the distant rumble of conflict intertwine. Her voice is intimate, inviting listeners to feel the rhythm of daily routines and the quiet moments that defined life inside those walls.
Among the recollections is the story of a tiny “war child,” Leslie, whose arrival sparked both hope and sorrow for the staff. Through his fragile beginnings and the compassionate care he receives, the narrative reveals how the hospital became a sanctuary where duty, love, and the ever‑present shadow of loss coexisted. Listeners will be drawn into the tender humanity of a profession that faced both the horrors of war and the simple miracles of healing.
