After eight + years, my parents finally met Francis’ parents...and now Tita and my mom are non-stop texting lol.
Phew.
Now back to packing and enjoying my last week in Fort Lauderdale 🥳
Honestly thought my assistant nurse manager disliked me so much, but when I told her I’m leaving in August, she told me I’m one of the most hardworking and helpful people on our unit.
Made me smile 🙂
What I’ve learned today, is that I’m only beginning to learn what this movement really is about. I promise to continue to educate myself and listen with an open heart.
I see you, I hear you, I stand with you

Telling a nurse, who has been fighting day & night to keep people alive and whose job it is to protect your dumb trash ass, to “go to China” because all you watch is cult TV & insane conspiracy videos, is more batshit crazy than I can take on this Sunday night.
It’s World Health Day, and we owe a profound debt of gratitude to all our medical professionals. They’re still giving their all for us every day, at great risk to themselves, and we can’t thank them enough for their bravery and their service.
As a nurse in this pandemic, even though I’m not in direct contact with COVID19 patients (b/c SLE), I’m scared af. Probably have at least 1 panic attack/week if I think too much about it.
Seeing patients younger than me intubated and how sick they are scare me. Pls take care💜
When a patient and/or family member asks me for my age...I know what they’re gonna say.
I AM AN EXPERIENCED NURSE SIR/MAAM. I just have very good skin that makes me look 18 4lyfe. 🙄
Through all the bad patients I’ve had, I had one last night who’s spirit has changed how I look at life and reminds me of why I do what I do.
Shed a tear saying by to him this morning, but he’s def impacted my life for the better 🤧
Two white dudes were looking at me while I was drinking my boba.
Guy 1: what is that??
Guy 2: oh thats boba, it started in New York and it’s gotten so popular!
Almost choked on a tapioca ball 🤦🏾♀️
