Even after you are gone, I will plant you as a tree in the deepest part of my heart because it there your roots have been planted. It is there my love keeps growing for you. Even after you are gone.

That PICU nurse LIFE
No one can understands what a PICU nurse feels, thinks, and experiences.. that is, besides her PICU coworkers in her moments of true devastation. It’s Pediatric Nurse Week, and some people don’t know what we do, no one seems to know what a PICU is… and my biggest pet peeve – when they confuse PICU…

Did you thank your Doctor?
I will be the first to admit that not all doctors are good; in fact some are just a nightmare to deal with. You spend hours waiting to see them and when you finally do, they use all this medical jargon leaving you unsure of even what questions to ask. And without giving you a…

The short life
Life is too short. Yet, we live it with regrets. We don’t live to the fullest we were meant to live. We don’t love to the depths that we can. Instead we stop trying, stop hoping, stop believing. We forget our purpose. We forget our goals, our dreams. We settle, we let ourselves fall short.…
