Thank You Amazing Nurses.

This week which is just concluding is the nurses week and I have about three nurses in my life.

Each of them has played a very significant role in my life from caregiving to their self-sacrificing spirit towards me and humanity in general.

At the start of the week, I ensured to send them heartwarming messages to acknowledge their zeal for the profession and that left them with a smile.

As we chatted, I began to ask them a series of questions as to how they are faring, The truth is most of them complained about being underpaid, in my country the nurses and teachers are doing great jobs towards humanity but sadly they are less paid professionals, this could demoralize their zeal as people are motivated when they feel appreciated.

I asked them what they hope to do, and they said because of their love of the job they do not have plans to quit any moment soon but they hope the government look into the matter and make them smile genuinely. I hope someday the narrative will change and they will be considered one of the most valuable professions in the country.

The challenging part of their job is having to deal with stubborn patients who are also rude and mean at the same time, they have learned the act of patience and thoughtfulness even though most people take them for granted. These people are strong people who care for different victims of accidents, sick ones and aged ones with so much love and tenderness.

They can stand the sight of a pool of blood and not freak out, they remain composed and do the right thing to save the victims, it is indeed not a job for the faint-hearted ones.

I want to use this medium to appreciate all the nurses around the world for your self-sacrificing spirit towards humanity and how you have chosen to save lives. Without you, the world would be cold and brutal, we might have no hope of reviving our sick ones, and without you, we might have been far gone, thank you.

This reminds me of the time of COVID-19 and how many health workers out there lived at risk just to save others, they truly deserve some accolades and I pray their good deeds never go unnoticed, thank you for being an amazing one, thank you for choosing to care for others and thank you for everything.
