10 years in pediatrics nursing

I've been a nurse for 36 years, most of them in pediatrics at Mekelle Children's Hospital in Mekelle. 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 volunteer at the food bank on Saturdays.
I'm proud of everyone I got to work with.
More about Hiwot
I still get cards from families years later. They're pinned to my fridge.
