Women Of Vision In this extraordinary, true story, Beatrice Johns explores the histories of Dr. Katherine Berry Richardson and Dr. Alice Berry Graham. In the late 1800's, at a time when women rarely became doctors, these two amazing sisters founded Mercy Hospital for Children in Kansas City, Missouri, and later, Wheatley-Provident Hospital for black children, both free hospitals for children whose parents couldn't otherwise afford their medical care. Women of Vision recounts the struggles and triumphs of Doctors Richardson and Graham as they fought to keep their hospitals free and open to help sick children across the country. Their courage and farsightedness paved the way for all women to move ahead in the professional world and to stand up for their beliefs. In the second part of Women of Vision, entitled "Try a Greener Day: My Series of Stays," Beatrice Johns tells of her own experiences as a child in the 1920's, when she was a patient at Mercy Hospital for months at a time and actually met Dr. Richardson. This story, which started for Bea about 75 years ago, culminates in this volume, written in gratitude and in deep appreciation for the great doctors and the hospital that saved her life. soft cover, 160 pages, 8.5" x 5.5". ISBN: 0-9724257-2-1.
