February 25, 1943 Director of Nursing Service St. Francis Hospital Wilmington, Delaware My dear Director: Miss Betty Lou Wilson is being considered by the American Red Cross for a Foreign Service appointment. Her medical history reveals that at the time she was a student nurse (1936) she was hospitalized with an attack of pleuriey. Do be kind enough to give us a report of her illness at that time. Our Red Cross physician wants to know especially whether or not it was a simple pleurisy or with effusion. He would also like the report to include the complete diagnosis, the length of time she was a patient and her prognosis upon recovery. We do appreciate your cooperation. Very truly. yours, (Mrs.) Ernestine B. Amick Assistant to Director EBA:SJ Nursing Service Encl. Stamped Addressed envelope
