Dear Journal,
I was told that next week is a special occasion… Nurses Week!! I was so excited to say hi to all of the nurses working today. Juan and I handed out a thank you card to the nursing units to tell them how much we appreciate them.
I even signed it myself. They seemed to love it!
The Marketing Department even wanted me in their “thank you” video that they are going to show at the Nurses Week celebration! I must be pretty popular around here.
We made our usual rounds around the hospital and stopped by the Andis Unit. They wanted to take a photo with me for Nurses Week.
We then made our way to Hospice and met the nicest lady. She wanted to take a photo with me to send to her family! She was so happy to see me.
I didn’t take the best photo with her because a beeping noise spooked me. I’m not sure what it was, but I didn’t like it one bit!!!!
After the scare, I decided that I needed to take a quick break.
I tried to power through it but I just couldn’t stop thinking about that NOISE. It was taunting me!
Juan decided that we should probably cut our visit short since I wasn’t as social as I usually am, but we can never leave without saying hi to the volunteers… it’s our tradition!
Although it was a short visit, I still have a great time seeing all of my friends or soon to be friends. I’m so glad that I’m able to help people feel better, even for just a second.
Keep up with my adventures and see what I’m up to around the hospital! Hopefully, I’ll get to meet even more people next time that I visit. I sure hope so.
