"You're a nurse?" That's cool, I wanted to do that when I was a kid. How much do you make?"

The nurse replied: "How much do I make?" ...

I can make holding your hand seem like the most important thing in the world when you're scared...

I can make your child breathe when they stop...

I can help your father survive a heart attack...

I can make myself get up at 5 am to make sure your mother has the medicine she needs to live...

I work all day to save the lives of strangers...

I make my family wait for dinner until I know your family member is taken care of...

I make myself skip lunch so that i can make sure that everything I did for your wife today is charted...

I make myself work weekends and holidays because people don't just get sick Monday - Friday.

Today, I might save your life.

So, how much do I make?

All i know is, I make a difference
