Nursing & Compassion

Yesterday, I worked as the welcoming doorman for the MD Anderson Nurse Recruitment fair.  My station was between the garage and the elevator that took them to the fair.  In their faces you could feel excitement, but also the compassionate energy that defines nursing.  Juxtaposed on my surreal feelings were visitors, family members and patients leaving the hospital in wheelchairs, wearing face masks, or carrying oxygen bottles, suitcases, and thick folders.  The world needs more servant leaders who have an innate ability to care, listen, and bring hope through compassion.  This special full moon Valentine’s Day, THANK A NURSE!
