Florence Nightingale was born in a rich family .When she was young ,she took lessons in music and drawing ,and read great books. She also traveled a great deal (大量地) with her parents.
As a child she felt that visiting sick people was both a duty and a pleasure . She enjoyed helping them.
At last her mind was made up,“I’m going to be a nurse .” She decided.
“Nursing isn’t the right work for a lady,” her father told her.
“Then I will make it so.” She smiled .And then she went to learn nursing In Germany and France.
During the Crimean War in 1854,she and a team of thirty-eight nurses went to the front(前线) hospitals. What they saw there was terrible .Many soldiers died because the hospitals were dirty . But the brave nurses went to work hard to make the hospital clean and stop soldiers dying .Florence used her own money and some from friends to buy clothes, beds, medicines and food for the men. Her only pay was smiles from the dying soldiers . But they were more than enough for this kind woman.
After the war she returned to England in 1856,and was honored for her services by Queen Victoria .But Florence said that her work had just begun .
She raised money to build the Nightingale Home(疗养院) for Nurses in London.
