Cady's Life by Anne Frank

A week had gone by since the accident. Cady's mother came every morning and afternoon, but she wasn't allowed to stay long since her constant nervous chatter wore Cady out, and the nurse who took care of her had noticed that Cady looked forward to her father's visits much more than to her mother's.

The nurse had almost no trouble at all with her little patient. Though Cady must have been in a great deal of pain, especially when she was being examined by the doctor, she never complained and was never unhappy.
