People often say ‘I don’t know how you do your job’, as a nurse, it's an absolute privilege to care for these children and families.
Stepping away from the day to day duties of care is simply bliss. Being able to be Mum and Dad again is the best gift ever and we are so grateful.
Let your smile live on. Leave a gift in your Will and a smile for the future.
