I've been a nurse for 32 years, most of them in intensive care at Highland Children's Hospital in Ottawa. Night shifts taught me patience, and patients taught me everything else.
I always make time for a proper cup of tea. Small things matter when someone is frightened.

I still get cards from families years later. They're pinned to my fridge.
