Let me just start off by saying that I absolutely LOVE the people I work with. Of course everyone has their flaws and some people will get on my nerves, and I tend to get along more with some than with others, but for the most part, I work with some pretty great people. And that was confirmed last night.
One of the nurses from L&D came over to the Nursery and told us that she was selling raffle tickets (I know, Dad!!) for a benefit for her cousin. Her cousin has pancreatic cancer and has used up all her insurance on the medicine she is on, so her family is trying to raise money to pay for the rest of her medication.
Not two seconds after she asked if we wanted to buy tickets, the nurses that were in the room grabbed their wallets to give money without a second thought. And they gave generously. I was amazed that they would give so much money to a lady they have never met.
When I left work, I was happy because now I really know what kind of people I work with...people who really do care for others in need.
