Every morning we say "today is going to be a good day" and it usually is, but having good coworkers helps

I am an ex-convict. I have AIDS. I'm a prostitute. I'm poor. I'm old. I'm lesbian. I aborted my baby. I'm a teenage mom. I'm a victim of gang rape. I'm a drug user. I'm an alcoholic. I'm a beggar. I have a contagious disease. I have cancer.

...but the nurse said, "I'll take care of you".

You have to have the bitter to appreciate the sweet.

She believed she could, so she did.

I have 2 favorite nursing quotes:

"Anything you can take orally, you can take rectally"

" 'Sorry' is in the dictionary between **** and syphilis"

"Nursing is the hardest thing you'll ever love" --nursing instructor my first semester of nursing school

"Being a nurse has made my skin tougher and my heart softer" ❤️

Just another day in paradise!

Nurses may not be angels, but they are the next best thing!

Dream is not that you see in sleep, dream is that keeps you awake!!!

never do anything you would not want to explain to a nurse ;)

Save one life, you're a hero. Save hundreds of lives, you're a nurse.
