re: Happy Nurses Day

Nurses are under appreciated and, as you know, my first wife of 24 years was/is a nurse who started as an LPN worked her way up to RN and eventually an APRN. The stories she used to bring home were mind boggling in her triage years.

Later, when she began to specialize in chemo, the stories became more tragic and heart breaking. The cards and letters and gifts she would get from her patients every Christmas were overwhelming.

She was married to her job and eventually it cost us our marriage but God Bless her, she is so good at what she does. She’s helped a lot of people.

I don’t know how y’all do it Ange but God Bless all of y’all. I have had some absolute angels take care of me over the course of my life after various injuries. Met my ex wife in Newcastle England while in a hospital there recovering from a bad injury I sustained while training with the SAS. She was just the bomb at the time. Looked just like Julia Roberts to me. Got me healed and then got me hitched.

I don’t know how y’all don’t get attached to more people and patients than you do.
