Synopsis: Traveling West To Help The Sick, is an exciting adventure, as well as a love story. A woman doctor is headed to Sacramento to start a new practice -- she hopes. Where she was from wasn’t exactly behind her plans to set up practice, and she almost lost her faith, but when she met a well-dressed man on the train, with a briefcase chained to his wrist, she got far more than a train ride to the West Coast.
It was difficult to be a doctor back east, Charlotte told herself. She felt like she needed the reassurance as she boarded the train in St. Louis, medical bag clutched firmly in her hand, a small case of clothes in the other.
The porter helped her find her seat. No trunks, ma’am?
he asked politely but curiously.
None, thank you,
Charlotte said briskly.
She was a no-frills woman. She washed her own clothes, so she didn’t need very many of them at all. Fashion was the last thing on her mind — the first was always helping people. Always.
Have a good journey,
he said, tipping his cap at her and walking away to assist the next passenger.
Charlotte stowed her case before taking her seat. She kept the medical bag on her lap, the leather and the weight of it a comfort. It contained everything she needed — pills, tinctures, bandages, scissors, needle and thread, thermometer, stethoscope, and bible. Charlotte understood science and medicine well.
She also understood the power of prayer.
One of Charlotte’s favorite portions of the bible was Psalm 139. She could practically recite it by heart.
For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.
Charlotte thought it was wonderful. God truly did know and shape every human being. As a doctor, she just did a little maintenance work from time to time.
Not everyone was excited about her being a doctor.
Charlotte had believed that the residents of the small town outside of St. Louis where she grew up would be receptive. She completed grade school, went on to college and medical school, and then returned to start giving back to the community that had raised her.
She opened an office, made a special effort to advertise her services to women and children in particular, and waited for her first patient.
She waited for a long time, wondering what she was doing wrong, until she
