==History==
Chloroform was first seen in 1830/1 in Western Europe. She started working as a surgeon in 1846. Her dark blue and pink hair colour was considered unnatural and creepy by her patients. Chloroform always wanted look more human and wore a turban to cover her hair to not to scare her patients. Chloroform was loved by Queen Victoria for helping her pain during childbirth.
She and [[Diethyl Ether]] went to wars as doctors where they helped many people. They held no sides in wars and did surgeries on injured soldiers without any political judgement.
Around the 1950s, after being accused of many deaths, Chloroform was forced to retire from working in anaesthesia and replaced by younger anaesthetists such as [[Trichloroethylene]] and [[Halothane]]. Ether voluntarily retired years after Chloroform. Unlike other Organochlorides, Chloroform did not seek for a new job after retirement. She had a short career in refrigeration.
