Rough Day

As a labor and delivery nurse I get to be a part of some of the most precious moments that people experience in this life. Along with all that joy and new life, inevitably come some of the most heartbreaking and emotionally draining situations. As a nurse I am right in the middle of the situation. Anxious and fearful patients are looking to me for support, love, information, and any shred of hope. It is a very difficult thing to go through a major trial along with another person. All you can do is cry with them, and let them know that everything that they are feeling is real and ok. I can't divulge any details about what exactly happened with the patients that I saw today, but needless to say it made me stop and appreciate my beautiful girls. Pregnancies don't always go as planned, and each life truly is such a miracle. I am so thankful to have 2 healthy, happy kids.
