A personal testimony detailing the life of a teenage patient in a
tuberculosis hospital taken from his daily diary entries. Like
others he was cooped up and restricted, while gratefully receiving
care and treatment from surgeons and nursing staff under the
watchful eye of strict yet sympathetic Sisters and Matrons. This is
an entertaining read involving co-operation and modest revolt
including nruse chasing, illicit pub crawls, and regular carpeting
by the Ward Sister and Medical Superintendent. Yet accompanying the
lighter moments is an important medical, social and personal record
of the 1950s sanatorium experience.
