“我”的一个病人给“我”打电话求助,询问“我”是否可以帮忙照顾他的狗,作为护士的“我”欣然同意,把狗从收容所领回去并细心照料。

As a nurse, I have always devoted myself to the welfare of my patients. Last November, I got a panicked call from John Burley,  one  of  my  patients.  Hed  been  in hospital with pneumonia (肺炎), and with no nearby family to step in to help, his dog Boomer had been taken to an animal shelter.

I was aware that the 12?year?old dog hed had since it was a pup meant the world to him. When Burley asked me if I would take care of Boomer, my immediate response was “Of course, I will!”. The following day, I drove to the shelter and put the adoption in motion, letting Burley know Boomer was doing well and itd be coming home soon.

I was given the green light to bring Boomer to work with me. Knowing his beloved companion was safe and theyd be able to see each other made a huge positive impact on Burleys recovery. I brought Boomer to visit Burley several times a day. The cute dog soon became a favorite with staff and patients alike.

To me, keeping 60?year?old Burley and Boomer together is just a natural extension of my lifes goal of helping people. I cant cure all diseases. Im not a miracle worker, but I made a promise to Burley to care for Boomer. I will take care of it as long as he needs me.

I am very proud of my nursing profession and I love that nurses are still one of the most trusted professions to the public. Many years of being a nurse, I have never had a regret about my career choice.
