As a boy, Sanders was much influenced by books about the sea, but in fact by the age of fifteen he had decided to become a doctor rather than a sailor. His father was a dentist and as a result, Sanders had the opportunity of meeting people socially. He was surprised to find that he didn’t hate the sight of blood. When he was fourteen he began to work as an assistant for the local doctor so that he was able to hear the doctor’s conversations with patients. During the war Sanders served in the Navy as a surgeon. After the war he married a nurse in a nearby clinic. “That was the happiest time of my life, doing major surgery. I was dealing with very real suffering and saving the soldiers from pains.” He saw himself as a life-saver. This gave the young man plenty of opportunity to go on working as a life-saver. In Rhodes where he worked under an old doctor, he taught the country people simple facts about medicine. He found that those people lived simply and possessed qualities and a secret of living which he lacked. Thus, while teaching them what to do, he could feel he was serving them.
