I make myself work straight through to keep her alive and start the day all over again!
I make myself work all day to save the lives of strangers.
I make my family wait for dinner until I know every patient is taken care of.
I make myself skip lunch so that I can make sure that everything I did for my patient today was correct...
I make myself work on weekends and on holidays and all through the nights because people don't just get sick on Monday to Saturday and during normal working hours.
