I've been a nurse for ten years, most of them in palliative care at Los Angeles Community Hospital in Los Angeles. Night shifts taught me patience, and patients taught me everything else.
I carry a notebook everywhere. Small things matter when someone is frightened.
It has been a good run and I'm grateful for all of it.

What gifts mean to Mercedes: A gift would go toward blankets and small comforts for patients without family.
