Notes from her service record - She did her nurses training at the General Hospital Nottingham from November 1906 to June 1910. 3 years and 6 months. She joined the Military Hospital at York 16 November 1914. 13 July 1915 she was placed officially on the sick list. She was suffering from diabetes mellitus. ( Diabetes mellitus refers to a group of diseases that affect how your body uses blood sugar (glucose). Glucose is vital to your health because it's an important source of energy for the cells that make up your muscles and tissues. It's also your brain's main source of fuel) The medical board she was on 28 July 1915 found her permanently unfit for general service and was accordingly retired.
Extract from a report about her which is in her service record
The Matron of the hospital had some concerns about her health. She was asked several times by the Matron if she was felling quite well and she always said, “perfectly well”. In the beginning of July, the Matron had noticed the peculiar sweet odour from her breath for some time. It was suggested to her that a M.O. (Medical Officer) should see her, she was annoyed about seeing the doctor. The M.O. saw her at once and that she was suffering from diabetes, the usual diabetes treatment was ordered. Everything points to the fact that she entered service suffering from diabetes and must have been aware of it. She was placed officially on the sick list 13 July 1915.
