You’re a nurse?? That’s cool. What do you make?” “WHAT DO I MAKE??” I 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 make myself get out of bed 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 husband today is charted. I make myself work weekends and holidays because people just don’t get sick Monday thru Friday. Today, I might save your life. I make a difference, what do you make?” REPOST if you are a nurse or you love a nurse ♥
