LIFE-LONG DREAM FULFILLED

Abstract

In the early 1940’s, when I was a 14 year old in grade 9 at Chebucto Road School, in Halifax, NS, a Guidance Counsellor taught my class a compulsory subject titled CAREERS. The credit criteria for this subject required the development of a ‘CAREER BOOK’. The title page for my career book was Nurse As My Career. I had actually chosen this career long before the age of fourteen.
