Korean nurse spent
33 years in Terrace

“HERE :=N THERE
YVONNE MOEN
IT’S ALWAYS hard to say

goodbye to a good friend.
When someone you know

has to leave because it’s .

that time in their life when
a change should be made,
friends left behind are sad-
dened to see that special
person go.

In November we said
our sad goodbyes to a very
Special lady and wonderful
friend who left Terrace
after 33 years for Coquil-
lam.

1 am sure many of you
living in the Terrace area
came to know this beauti-
ful and caring lady: “Miss
Kim”.

Miss Eulran Kim was
born Dec. 20, 1919 in
Seoul, Korea.

Her father, Chiku,
worked like a notary pub-

lic, helping others with |

legal papers and writing
letters. He also ran a small
farm, with her mother
Mooim, and a family of
six children, four girls and
two boys.

They are all gone now,
except for a younger sis-
ter, still living in Korea.

Miss Kim did all her
schooling in Korea. After
graduating from high
school, she went on to
train at the Seoul Red
Cross nursing school. From
there she graduated at the
top of the class, with hon-
ours, as a registered nurse.

Miss: Kim was hired on
as the head nurse in
charge of the operating

room-in’ the Seoul Red

Cross haspital. :

Ses

receiving the Nightingale
Medal for wartime service,

After the war, in 1946,
she became director of
nursing, She later went to
work as the director of
nursing at Seoul city hos-
pital, where the admin-
istrator told her about his
son, a radiologist at Prince
George Hospital.

After she had prepared
all her papers, she sent off
a resume to the director of
nursing in Prince George.

She emigrated to Cana-
da on May 30, in 1967,
and worked at the Prince
George Hospital for more
than a year,

After a short stay in
chilly Fort St. John, she
applied for a position in
Terrace, at Mills Memor-
ial Hospital. She received
a telegram from Mrs,
Chen-Wing with the good .

news, and arrived in Ter-
race Dee, 1, 1968. She
worked there until her re-
tirement at age 65.

During that time she
worked in the nursing and
maternity ward. She said
she laved her job — espe-
cially working with the
babies.

In 1967, she received
the International Night-
ingale medal in recogni-
tion for her wartime ser-
vice.

Miss Kim is remem-
bered as a very caring and
conscientious nurse, a
nurse who really cared for
her patients and. always
had a friendly smile. Now,
we send her our best
wishes and good health.

Greetings from all your
friends in Terrace.

for that?” Allison asked.

“Actually, I'm thinking of having another
baby." Kate sald nonchalantly.
Allison was stunned. “No way! Since when

ig thera a new guy in your life?”

‘There isn’t. Fred’s the only man I'd ever
want to have children with.”

"YOUR EX-HUSBAND? The man you got a
restraining order against during your horrible
divorce?” Allison's Jaw dropped.

*Oh, he was a lousy husband, and i'd never
want him back. | jist want another kid with
him, Look how wonderful tha twins are. That
man has great genes.” Kate brawsed through
the strollers.

“But you can't even stand being in the same
room with him!’ Allison frowned.

“Who sald anything about the same room?
I'm not even going to tell him. | hava some
embryos left over from the last fertility
treatments.”

“[naed a drink,” Allison said. Thay headed
for the food court.

Altison’s mind was racing as she sipped her
cappucino., “What if Fred finds out?”

“That's not my problem. He signed away his
rights on the consent forms. Gotta run. I'm
seeing Dr. Carlotti for the embryo implant.
Wish me luck!" Kate grinned and disappeared
Into the crowd.

Allison sat in the food court, deep in
thought.

Finally, she picked up her cellphone, “I hope
Kate will forgive me, but | don't think this is falr
to har ex.”

Allison called Fred,

Meanwhile, Kate was undergoing the proce-

dure at Dr. Carlotti's. “I've inserted the
embryo, Kate. Everything looks great,”

Suddenly, ‘Fred burst through the door.
“Unhand that embryoll"

“Fred! What are YOU doing here?" Kate
gasped, clutching her paper robe tightly
around herself.

“Nurse!” Dr. Carlotti barked. “Remove that
man!”

A week later, Kate called Allison In a fury,
“How could you tell. Fredl He stormed into
the clinic like a deranged man. And big sur-
prise...lhe procedure didn't taka. Fred proba-
bly upset the embryo, or my uterus or
something.”

“Maybe It's for the best. Kate,” Allison said
sheepishly.

“Well, it's nol best for MEI"

The next day, the bailiff showed up at
Kate's door.

“What?! Fred Is suing to stop me from
using the embryos?!" Kate was Incredulous.

Fred jumped up. “Don't make me become
a father because of a plece of paper, Your
Honour! ('m divorced from this woman and
shouldn't be forced to have more children
with her.”

Should Kate get the embryos? You! Be
The Judge. Then look below for the court's
decision. In court, Kate fought hard. “Your
Honour, the cansent form that Fred signed
Says | get the fertilized eqgs if we split up.”
