The Thirsty Elephant is the amazing story of Ellen G. White's land purchase in 1904, and the hospital's subsequent establishment and growth. It was under the guidance of E. G. White, at the age of 77 years old, whose firm belief in the healing properties of nature guided her to this plot of land against all odds, which is now Paradise Valley Hospital.
