Lady Borton has experienced many difficult occurrences throughout her life. She has seen more terror and horror than anyone else has probably perceived. I can not imagine going through all the things that she has had to go through. Lady Borton served as a nurse during the Vietnam War. She also has been back to Vietnam to help the victims still affected by the war. Lady Borton has dedicated her life to helping the less fortunate. Lady Borton was born into a very loving family. She had caring parents and a very supporting family. This had a great effect on how she viewed the world. She is not self-centered or self-absorbed. I think this is very evident by the way she writes her stories. She writes about how the war affected the Vietnamese, and not just the Americans. So often we are only subjected to the American view of the story and forget about all the innocent victims of Vietnam. As I mentioned earlier, many innocent kids are being born with severe birth effect. Lady Borton writes, “One infant had four arms, another a bowl in place of her cranium, a third a face on his abdomen, a forth his naval protruding from his forehead.”(Borton 1103) These are just some of the effects of the harmful pesticides the Americans
