To me, one of the most inspirational part of nursing is to WITNESS an impenetrable relationship formed between friends, family, loved ones ..... only made stronger by the tragedy of sickness. Not only do nurses restore heartbeats and give patients breath and save lives in the moment, but they allow for the beauty and strength of love and relationships within those lives to continue. Nursing allows you to see not only moments of horrific tragedy, but also sweet, tender, and amazing moments, like the quiet hand holding of a couple still in love after over 40 years of marriage. This is what I love about nursing, and why I chose the profession: it is not only the care of patients and the alleviation of their suffering, but it’s the treatment of those people outside their illness. It’s not just about saving a person from their pain: it’s about saving their loves, their relationships, their likes, their dislikes, and who they are. It’s about saving their entire lives! I am Proud to be a Nigerian Nurse!!! Share this if you love what you/we do as NURSES!
