About Nurses: Somebody asked: You’re a nurse? That’s cool, I wanted to do that

when I was a kid. How much do you make? The nurse replied. HOW MUCH DO I

MAKE?

I can make holding your hand seem like the most important thing in the world when

you’re scared.

I can make your child breathe when they stop

I can help your father survive a heart attack.

I can make myself get up at 5AM to make sure your mother has the medicine she

needs to live.

I work all day to save the lives of strangers.

I make my family wait for dinner until I know your family member is taken care of.

I make myself skip lunch so that I can make sure that everything I did for your wife

today is charted.

I make myself work weekends and holidays because people don’t just get sick

Monday through Friday.

Today, I might save your life.

How much do I make?

All I know is I make a difference.
