These are transcriptions of my grandmother's journals and writings from different points in her life from her girlhood diaries in Kansas in the early 1900's to her later years.
Tuesday, June 14, 1910
Mama and Papa came every day over to the hospital twice a day and Aunt Sady came two or three times and Uncle John once a day. Mrs. Cornelius two or three times and Robert once or twice. Uncle Stewart came two or three times. Aunt Sady got me a white parasol (She got me a white dress with pink dots in too several weeks ago.) Clyde brought me some carnations. Mrs. Stoel sent me some pansies and Mrs. Cornelius gave me phlox and Aunt Sady gave me nasturtiums. I sat up in bed first either Sun. or Mon. evening. I didn't eat much at the hospital because the food didn't taste good. The doctors (Dr. Messenbaugh and Dr. Howard) would come once or twice a day to see me. I got a postal from Marshall R, Emil S, Beulah and Miss Palmer while I was at the hospital. I also got one that Florene Allen had sent to B'game and Mama had sent to Okla. City. Mama went to a show at Delmar with Uncle John to-night and to hear the great Swedish singer Helen Renstrom at Christian church. Papa saw a great many things I guess.
