Florence Nightingale

playing doctor that everyone thought she should become a nurse when she grew up. And that's exactly what she did. At the Battle of the Crimea in 1854, she was the only nurse on the battlefield with all those lonely anxious soldiers.

She took such good care of them that a group of kindly cavalrymen wanted Florence to look after their morale all the time and be in full charge of the light brigade. But their company doctor said she was far too young and pretty for such a grave responsibility.

So instead he painted a throat with some purple antiseptic stuff. Thank you, story lady. Be listening next time boys and girls, when the story lady will tell us whether a macadamia nut is an inmate of a Greek asylum.

Or nut.
