Don't Worry....my Mom's a Nurse!

A Nurse Practioner has started orientation in our Palliative Care Unit. I realized that she and I had worked together at St. Joseph Health Centre, Emergency Department in 2003. Dylan would have been 4 years old. She began to laugh when she saw me and said she wanted to share a vivid memory of me. During the summertime, all the emergency department physicians and nurses were invited to an outdoor bbq, along with our families. Our children were being entertained by jumping on a bouncy castle when one child fell off and began to cry.

Casey clearly remembers my son Dylan running over to the boy, putting his hands up to calm the adults (i.e. emergency doctors and nurses) and shouting out, "DON'T WORRY EVERYONE, MY MOM IS A NURSE!!"
