I have been feeling sorry for myself today. Three full-time kids, two part-time stepkids, full-time job, full-time hubby… full-time school… clinicals. It is a lot.
Then I read this entry from my sister’s LiveJournal. My sister, an RN for more than a decade, has spent the last two weeks in Haiti, where she has helped out a friend’s clinic and gone out with a truck into Port Au Prince to help the wounded. She speaks the language fluently, so she is able to really listen to the stories they tell. Today’s entry broke my heart.
I am truly blessed. And what a gift it is to be a nurse — to lend a hand and alleviate suffering in a very real way!
