As I was leaving my dermatologist’s office I saw this sign posted by the elevator.
This is probably due to this complex being an offshoot of Erlanger Medical Center, named after the Baroness d’Erlanger. The cornerstone for the Baroness Erlanger Hospital was laid in 1891. In 1899 the $50,000 hospital opened with 72 beds. Soon after its opening, Erlanger formed one of the state’s first nursing schools and developed a partnership with Chattanooga Medical College, now the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.
Mommy, this is supposed to be Wordless Wednesday. You’re as barky as me!

We like that sign too, hey, the Dad saw the Chattanooga Choo Choo once and his former boss came to SC from the Erlanger Hospital, sadly he passed away a few months ago.

Mom can use all the words she wants. How would we know about this hospital if she didn’t use all those words.
Yes, I’ve thanked God today.
