Here’s To The Nurses On Your Day

On International Nurses Day, we tip our hats to these compassionate warriors who wield thermometers like swords and bandages like shields. They are the vigilant sentinels at the gates of recovery, the ones who listen to our grumbles with saintly patience, and yet, somehow, manage to draw blood without conjuring a single curse from our lips.

They flit through the wards offering hope with every measured step. And let's not forget their magical ability to appear exactly at the moment you finally find a comfortable position in your hospital bed. With a knack for disappearing when you need an extra pillow, but reappearing in a flash at the sound of the faintly muffles of a distressed patient, nurses master the art of being ever-present. Nurses often get a bad rap.
