Happy Nurses Week to all of you! Thank you so much for doing what you do, Thank you for always being there for me, keeping me pain free, educating me, making me laugh when I needed it. Be sure during this week to take some time and reflect on the POSITIVE things you do as a nurse, and to treat yourself to something special. If you ever have a bad shift ALWAYS remember you have patients who respect, admire and appreciate the work that you do and that will never forget what you have done for them.

Your biggest admirer and fan,

Someone once asked me.....How do you let nurses know that I appreciate all that they do?

I told them to just say THANK YOU!

Thank you Wheels!!! You are officially only the 3rd person to say that (at least indirectly) to me this week! One of those was my Mom, does she count?? hahaa she's a nurse too, so I say NO! ;)

I appreciate very much your appreciation... it's why I do what I do!!! You are very thoughtful.

Enjoy your week as well and take care of YOU... as we all should too...

For all of you thank you all so very much for all you do! I have been a patient having had 5 children and as well some surgeries. I always say thank you to anyone who has cared for me in any capacity when I've been sick. And even to those who were obviously having a bad day and couldn't be their all at the time.

I am not a nursing student yet but hoping to be a nursing student by spring or fall 2015 depending how things get sorted.

When I had 106 fever when pregnant with my dear daughter in 1986 I had an awesome nurse that stopped me from going into anaphylaxis due to my iv medication was causing a severe reaction.

She reacted immediately and thoroughly as well she was awesome in explaining as she was treating me. And made sure before I left the hospital I would never forget the name of the drug I am allergic to.

There are many other wonderful stories I have about many other amazing nurses which through the course of time have made the impression on me to pursue a career in nursing.

Thank you all so much!
