A Long Time Ago

This is taken in San Diego, I think. Me, my dad and my brother Tom, maybe around 1943.

Your hair was curly because of rollers, not naturally was it?

Yes, it was before my accident. My mom curled my hair with rags and almost always put a big bow in it.

It was before her accident but NOT before her stint in the hospital where she went from one disease to another for at least a month - I was to the point of forcibly taking her home but contacted a lawyer who warned me against that and after meeting with the hospital head they released Diane providing I signed a document which would prevent me fron suing the hospital THEN they let her go - as I recall she had chicken pox or something when she got out - The lawyer refused payment so I got her something a civilian could not get in those days - a five pound box of chocolates - afterwards found out the document I signed was worthless because a person cannot sign away the rights of another person - even a minor. Diane had a very serious operation in the hospital - a mastoid operation and Helen and only saw her when they wheeled her into the operating room - during the month + she was confined. this is only part of that story !!
