Mekdes Selamawit Belay
Midwife and nurse, Addis Ababa

- Since 2017
- English, Amharic
I've been a nurse for nine years, most of them in orthopedics at Addis Ababa Regional Medical Center in Addis Ababa. 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 still get cards from families years later. They're pinned to my fridge.
