You were there for me when I needed you most, you are my inspiration, you are my hero you are my idol. No thank you's can ever be enough. Because of you I am breathing. Because of you I can wake up everyday with a smile on my face. Because of you my heart beats. Because you my brain thinks. Because of you I can live a life....a normal one.

Because of your quick thinking and smart actions because of your will to show compassion to others... To strangers who you may never ever see again in your life, I am here, I am here alive and breathing.

15 ish years ago I was born and I wasn't Breathing. I wasn't saved by doctor or a surgeon. I was save by you a nurse while the doctor was panicking you intubated me. Because of you, after 6 minutes of not breathing right after birth, I took my very first breath because of you. Had you not been, I probably would be 6 feet underground.

I am forever in your debit. I don't know your name and I don't know who you are but I will find out and thank you because that is my dream to thank the man or woman who saved my life.

Thank you nurses for what you do. Thank you.
