Nurses....The HEART of Health care!
Thank YOU...Thank YOU to all the nurses who tirelessly work long hours to make us better and brighten our most difficult days. I look back over the past years and am reminded that almost weekly I have been blessed by the smile of a nurse, a compassionate hand of a nurse, or empathetic eyes of a nurse that said; "if I could take your pain away, I would." Since I was young, I had always thought I would be a nurse, but realized that needles, blood and vomit made me so queasy that I almost passed out. I tried to get beyond it, but never seemed to have much luck. I realized later that God had blessed me with other gifts as an inspirational and humorous keynote speaker and have tried to use my gifts to make all of you nurses laugh from your toes to your soul and to inspire and encourage you to keep making a difference. Some of my best days over the past year have been in your presence at nursing events across the country where I have heard your stories from the heart that will stay with me forever. This week I reflect back on the thousands of nurses who have touched my life and thank you for the amazing work you do for others. You are the HEART of Health care! R
