Biography
Watson was born July 21, 1940, in Welch, West Virginia, the youngest of eight children.
She attended high school in West Virginia. Watson knew she wanted to be a nurse at the age of 10 when she saw a friend of her older sister having a seizure.[2] Her father died suddenly when she was 16 years old, something she claims made her particularly sensitive to people and their suffering for the rest of her life.&#
