Have you hugged a nurse today? Seriously, does anyone realize what they do for people? Do you realize what they do for your friends and family. Now, not because a few of my bestest friends are nurses, not to mention names, Tonjia and Necia BUT they do the jobs that people like I can't do.
My aunt is in the hospital, she is very sick. Friday night her nurse was in the room when I was there, and cleaning her up and getting her comfy. Here I stood there and could barely look at my aunt with all the tubes, the blood just everything, and the nurse came in and was so ever gently like it was no big deal. All weekend my aunt was blessed with nurses that have been with her almost all summer. They come in and take her hand and just talk with her. We feel better knowing when we leave they are in good hands.
Have you ever actually thanked a nurse before? I'm sorry the doctors don't do crap. It's the nurses that do the dirty work. While we were there we brought in cookies for them. Last time, we gave gift cards to the nurses. Just a simple thank you.
Nurses should have a recognized holiday for all they do for people. They are like god's angels helping not only the sick but the family.
My mind is on the nursing profession, doing something not everyone can do. I would never be able to walk in the shoes of a nurse. So, thank you to all the nurses who can do the work, there are people and families like mine who truly do appreciate all you do for us!!!
