Happy Days.
A Memory of Alton.
I was a student nurse there from September 1962 until September 1964. I have such happy memories as well as sad ones of my days there. Sister Smith or Slosher Smith as my set called her was indeed a strict person to work under. She reduced me to tears many a time when I would disappear to the sluice and scrub the red rubber draw sheets to keep out of her way. My first Christmas there that year coincided with a really bad snow fall. I was unable to get home on the Boxing Day for my half day off. I have photos of my friends and I standing outside the nurses home in the snow in our nighties with our hair in rollers!! I went back to Treloars in 2012 and found the little remembrance garden. My name back then was Sheila Weakford. Would love to hear from anyone who might remember me.
