Just in Time: A trip back to Brier Sanitarium in the 1930s. by Lawrence W. Gold
It’s the year 2000 and Margaret Price, age ninety-eight, enters Berkeley’s Brier Hospital in heart failure. Pat Teller, Margaret’s nurse, cares for her until she improves.
The women grow close and when Margaret shows her nursing class sepia photographs from the 1930s Brier Sanitarium, one young woman’s image astounds Pat.
Who is she?
Where is she?
What’s her story?
While Pat, a modern nurse, savors her capabilities, she chafes at the limitations imposed on nurses and physicians by politicians, accountants, insurance executives, and bureaucrats in the year 2000.
When Pat engages with the 1937 sepia photograph, she’s drawn back in time to an unexpected reality.
Margaret Price, a 1930’s nurse, is limited by the medical knowledge of her times. She makes the best of the situation by embracing her opportunity to love and support her patients within the limited mean available.
Both nursing capabilities have value, but time and reality keep them apart, or do they?
