My pc says the adress iswrong
My father has only one leg. Te other was amputated 10 years ago. He had an ischaemia but the doctors didn't realize he was loosing his leg. He was sent home but his leg ws gangrenous. It smelled horribly and was completely dark becuse the nervous tissue was already dead. His leg was dead, it was like a corpse, but the doctors said it was ok...at last they had to amputate in a hurry because his blood was already poisoned and he was dying.
I saw how the leg was - and he had no wands outside. I can imagine how a wanded soldier's leg or arm could appear and how terrible it could be for a sensitive girl like Olga was.
It probably didn't matter to Alix. When she decided that her daughters would nurse, they would nurse. She probably didn't even ask if they were able to endure the stress of hospital life.
It was was Alexandra wanted to do and so she made the decision for everyone, as usual. Both Olga and Tatiana might have thought, in their innocence, that they wanted to be nurses, but the reality, at least for Olga, turned out to be more that she could take.
What makes Alexandra any less innocent of the realities of hospital work than her daughters? To my knowledge she'd had no prior experience to prepare her for such tasks --- unless you count sitting at Aleksei's bedside during his hemophilia attacks. But even that is quite different from assisting in the operating theater.
Diane, posted a link to a youtube video of Nicholas' voice. It sounds much different than I have been led to believe; probably due to the movie Nicholas and Alexandra. His voice seems to have a lot of authority, at least imo.
To me she looks much like Queen Alexandra (another "Alix"). But this is most definitely not Princess Alix of Hesse!
it seems crazy that it is so requested in the EU, but almost non existant outside of it. Besides Pennsylvania Dutch, I don't think it's widely spoken in the States. Could this be because while England and France were colonizing places Germany was doing something else?
The Germans were late to colonize, and after WW I lost most of the few colonies they had.
In Namibia, a former German colony in Africa, you can find traces of German, mainly in street names.
I agree with the whole "she would be noticed" deal, but just to point out, she wasn't a Victorian Victorian lady. She pelted people with paper balls from a window in 1914.
Tatiana and her sisters were immature and native as their mother wanted them to be since she found young ladies of Russian society to be foolish and think they only of soldiers.
Russian Society as been known to be very scandalized and almost barbaric with love affairs and such. As Alix has been raised as a tight lace Victorian Princess, she wanted her daughters to be raised as such. Innocent and native.
As for the paper ball throwing, my guess that naughty Anastasia (still a child at the time) had Tatiana to play in her games...and possibly hoped that their mother would never find out. they were Just having fun and in their way of being naughty lol
