I know I would love to read it. You are correct, we have much to admire in the lives of these early women. I thank you for taking the time to read Julia's story, and for your kind words.

I'm wondering if after raising her family and losing her daughter then grandson that might have influenced her to practice medicine or if she had always had the desire. Years ago I wrote a long historical with a female MD and the Mounted Police and Beverly Wells authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12248685758575824289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-74261295168547962512015-09-08T12:56:40.743-05:002015-09-08T12:56:40.743-05:00Celia, I am glad you love Julia also.

We can all learn from that one.<br /><br />I've not heard of Linda, but will look her and her book up. Thank you for letting me know about her.

What a shame she couldn't have gone to school earlier in her life. But isn't is wonderful so many of us can pursue "another career or another venture", no matter our age. I do admire her. I agree with you that the headstone alone says that her husband thought highly of her. I will look up Hezpah. <br />Do you know my author Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16272417114895975742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-59252196395060267482015-09-07T16:26:02.755-05:002015-09-07T16:26:02.755-05:00Thank you Sarah.

It does take work to make relationships work, whether marriage, friendship or work. Too many either don't try or give up when things get rough.

People go into it thinking, if it doesn't work, I'll get a divorce or., for some, they don't commit to marriage at all. Love can only take a couple so far. It takes persistence, patience, and compromise. Wonderful blog, Doris.Sarah J.

I look forward to your 'lady doctor' posts you share with us here. I particularly enjoyed this one. So, thank you for that.Kaye Spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13530735658588595790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927727476793944291.post-25778470497150386112015-09-06T19:12:57.231-05:002015-09-06T19:12:57.231-05:00Thank you Gail.
