I've been a nurse for 30 years, most of them in school nursing at Silverlake Children's Hospital in Kyiv. Night shifts taught me patience, and patients taught me everything else.
I'm usually the first one in and the last to leave. Small things matter when someone is frightened.

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

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