March 5, 1912

From 8-year old Hilda’s diary:

Sancha took me to Alma. She is in a big hospital full of nurses, only the nurses are nuns too. She was sitting up in a little white bed with a cross hanging over it and she was so happy when I came in. She made a fuss over the daisies I brought her. She said we would have a party right there in the hospital and she called one of the nurses and ordered ice cream. The nurse brought us ice cream right away. Alma forgot to ask me if I did anything nice. I am glad she forgot to ask because I can’t think of anything that I did that was especially nice.
