It turns out it’s Nurses’ Week, and one of my NICU nurse friends (thank you, Lori) sent me this link. I thought forwarding it via my blog would be a wonderful way to share with people (non-NICU nurse types) a glimpse of what NICU nurses do.
(Unfortunately, I'm unable to get the video clip to run from this blog, so try searching for "What it means to be a NICU Nurse" on youtube to see the video.)
I miss nursing; I miss working with my nurse friends – a group of smart, kind dedicated, compassionate people who take their work so seriously and who – from the time I started my nursing career (only a few short years ago) – never ceased to inspire me to learn and be the best nurse I could be.So hurray to all the nurses, this week and every week. We're lucky to be a part of such an amazing profession. I'm so proud to have been a part of it.
Love you guys,

Amazing video, thank you for sharing with us (thanks to Lori C too)! As a nurse (and your sister [in law]) I really appreciate the positive "shout out" to the universe on our behalf. My wish for you on this week of nurses is that you are rewarded in kind for this kind gesture!
