I Love Nursing!

It was working the last two days that showed me more then ever how much I love to be a nurse. It was having two patients pass away in two days that made me thankful even more for chosing this profession. It was hard emotionally and physically but yet I felt drawn more to the job I am in.
We as nurses have so much potential to help people, to encourage people, to support people, and to just be there with them. We have the privelege of making our patients comfortable in their last hours and minutes of their lives. We have the honor of holding their hand so that they know they are not alone. We have the joy of helping someone get better when we all thought that they were dying...and the list continues.
It was extremly hard seeing death...it can be such a horrible thing...but it is through death that the Lord uses us in this profession.
I pray that in all I do that the Lord will use me to be a witness for Him, to pray for those I care for, to pray for family that watches all of this.
I know this blog is a bit disorganized but I had to write my thoughts as these last two days were so difficult...and yet like I said before these last two days proved to me that I am in the right place.
Lord help me to do my best for you!
