The letters, written amid scenes of horror and chaos, to officials, family and friends, express her hopes and fears and the doubts and frustrations of her arduous service. ;
Als Tochter wohlhabender Eltern erhielt Florence eine gute Erziehung. Das war im 19. Jahrhundert die Grundlage für eine gute Partie. Aber Florence wollte nicht heiraten, sie wollte Krankenschwester werden, um anderen Menschen zu helfen. Als 1853 der Krimkrieg ausbrach, ging sie in ein Militärlazarett in Konstantinopel. Dort starben die meisten Soldaten nicht an ihren Verletzungen, sondern an der mangelnden Hygiene im Krankenhaus. Diesem Mangel abzuhelfen, war ihr Ziel. Und damit löste sie eine Revolution im Gesundheitswesen aus. Sie wurde zur »Mutter der modernen Krankenpflege«. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Philosophin, Forscherin oder Sportler, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen.
The seven children are completely cut off from civilisation, mobile phones don’t work anymore and there’s no sign of help. Strange things happen on the island.
