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 5 a.m. 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 thru Friday. ... Today, I might save your life. ... How much
do I make? All I know is, I make a difference.
