[ They Say That Doctors Cure ]
[ & Nurses Care ]
[ What Is For Sure ]
[ Is That The Nurses Are Always There ]
[ They Stand By Your Side As Long As They Can ]
[ They Will Wipe Away Your Tears ]
[ & Hold Your Hand ]
[ The Nurses Are The Ones That Write The Story ]
[ While It’s The Doctors ]
[ That Rush In To Grab The Glory ]
[ The Nurses Do What The Doctors Don’t ]
[ The Nurses Complete The Tasks ]
[ That The Doctors Won’t ]
[ I Spent 11 Days In The Hospital Earlier In My Life ]
[ It Was A Nurse ]
[ Who Reached Out & Held The Hand Of My Wife ]
[ To Calm Her Fears ]
[ It Was What That Nurse Said ]
[ That Stopped Her Tears ]
[ When I Was Admitted, No One Knew What To Think ]
[ The Answer Wasn’t Found ]
[ In A Single Blink ]
[ 11 Days Felt More Like Over Two Weeks ]
[ During That Time ]
[ I Walked Through A lot Of Valleys & Climbed A lot Of
Peaks ]
[ I Remember That On The Second Day The Doctor Tried To
Discharge Me ]
[ My Wife Asked A Nurse How Can This Be? ]
[ They Knew I Didn’t Suffer With Cancer ]
[ But They Also Knew ]
[ They Did Not Have The Answers ]
[ The Nurses Checked On Me Around The Clock ]
[ Everyday They Urged Me ]
[ To Get Up & Walk ]
[ Oftentimes The Nurses Were The Only Ones Who Would Stop
In & Talk ]
[ The Times When I Was Stressing ]
[ Conversing With The Nurses ]
[ Was A Blessing ]
[ Nurses Deal With People @ Their Very Worst ]
[ & In Pain ]
[ They Show That A Bag Of Gold Is What They Are Worth ]
[ Again & Again ]
[ My Hat Goes Off To All Nurses, Especially Those Who Nursed
Me Back To Good Health ]
[ You All Should Be Extremely Proud Of Yourselves ]
[ Everyday … Every Single Day ]
[ You Are Definitely Underpaid ]
[ Day In & Day Out ]
[ I Shout ]
[ Without A Doubt ]
[ To Each & EVERY One Of You! ]
[ THANK YOU For What You Unselfishly Do ]

(216)▪︎[ Nice Nurse Named Laurel … 3•15•2021 ]
[ Well, Here I Sit On Monday, March 15th, 2021 ]
[ I Was Excited For This Surgery ]
[ But Now I Am Really Glad That It Is Finally Done ]
[ Spending The Night Before My Anniversary Has
Never Been An Ultimate Dream Of Mine ]
[ But @ Least It Is Just One Day & Night ]
[ Instead Of Nine ]
[ This Is A Whole Lot Better Than My Eleven Days ]
[ Stay ]
[ Completely Different Circumstances Than The Time
Before ]
[ Back Then The Need For Care Was A Whole Lot More ]
[ One Thing Is Definitely The Same With All Of My Stays ]
[ & That Is The Appreciation I Have For The Salem Hospital’s
Nurse’s ]
[ Each & Every Day ]
[ This Time I Am On The 7th Floor ]
[ Five More ]
[ Than The Time Before ]
[ I Had Fantastic Nurses Then ]
[ & I Have Fantastic Nurses Now ]
[ So How Did I Ever Get So Lucky, Again? ]
[ My Nurse Right Now Is A Nice Woman Named Laurel ]
[ If The Head Of The Hospital Ever Asked Me If She Should Get A
Big Raise ]
[ I Would Not Quarrel ]
[ Nurse Laurel Is So Nice & Polite In Everything She Does ]
[ She Is Not Looking For Accolades ]
[ She Does It, Just Because ]
[ It Is Not In Her Job Description, It Is In Her ]
[ There Is No Hidden Agenda ]
[ Because Her Intentions Are Pure ]
[ I Am Sure There Must Be Days That Nurses Wished It Would Go
By Quicker ]
[ Those Must Be The Days When Each Patient Comes Feeling
Sicker ]
[ Sicker Than The One Prior ]
[ Or During The Period Of Times When We Had The Fires ]
[ Sometimes They Probably Go A Whole Day Without Someone
Saying ( THANK YOU ) ]
[ But That Is Not The Reason That They Do What They Do ]
[ It Is Sad To Think That The Doctor’s Get All Of The Glory While
The Nuses Do All The Work ]
[ & I Bet More Than 1 Out Of Every 5 Patients Can Be A Jerk ]
[ Then You Brought Up This Nice Nurse Named Matt To Replace
The I.V. ]
[ That Had Fallen Out Of Me ]
[ To Be A Great Nurse Like Laurel You Must Start ]
[ With A Nice Personality & A Big Heart ]
[ & Not Just Anyone Can Handle This Part ]

(351)▪︎[ The M.D. People … 4•8•2020 ]
[ There Are So Many Brave Doctors, Nurses, Hospital Personnel &
First Responders Out There Working To Help People To Stay Alive ]
[ What Is Their Drive ]
[ To Risk Their Health ]
[ So Strangers Can Survive? ]
[ It’s Like { HI, I’m DR. SO & SO } ]
[ { I’m HERE TO HELP PEOPLE THAT I DON’t EVEN KNOW } ]
[ Why Do They? ]
[ Some People Might Say ]
[ & Ask ]
[ Why Do They Risk There Own Life ]
[ Taking On Such A Dangerous Task? ]
[ They Grow Up Thinking Medicine Is Their Number One Calling ]
[ After School They Go Right Into Helping Others ]
[ Without Stalling ]
[ They Help Others Attain Good Health ]
[ Without Reaching For Great Wealth ]
[ Then, As In Life, There Are The Moans & Groans ]
[ Of Spending The Rest Of Their Lives ]
[ Paying Off The Insurmountable Pile Of Student Loans ]
[ & Then They Always Get To See ]
[ Those Two Most Important Letters After Their Name, M.D. ]
