Never too late
Article Abstract:
The Forget-Me-Not Club started in 1991 in Hull, UK, to help mothers cope with the loss of a baby through miscarriage. The baby is recognised as a real person and the parents are allowed to express their grief. Parents can stay with their dead child and are given photographs, foot prints and scan printouts in a special wallet. Funeral services can be held. The Hull Neonatal and Stillbirth Group gives support to parents whose child has died at birth. The group has been approached by parents whose child died many years ago and who have never been able to grieve properly.

Face to face
Article Abstract:
Mary Seacole was born into a poor family in Kingston, Jamaica, and she desperately wanted to care for soldiers in the Crimea. She had much more trouble being allowed to do so that Florence Nightingale had because she was black. Florence Nightingale refused to allow black women to train at her training school after the war had finished. However, Florence Nightingale also encountered resistance when she tried to improve patients' conditions and her objections to older or married women made sense in that particular time.
