I've been a nurse for 19 years, most of them in orthopedics at Kano Children's Hospital in Kano. Night shifts taught me patience, and patients taught me everything else.
The thing I'm proudest of is that families usually remember my name. I paint watercolors of whatever is outside the window.
More about Garba
I still get cards from families years later. They're pinned to my fridge.

What gifts mean to Garba: I'd put gifts toward a training course in palliative care.
