Nurse For Better Or Worse

Nurse for Better Or Worse

Had married my wife for better or worse.
And she ended up becoming a nurse;
Not only that became an Registered RN;
On general floor is where she did begin.

With others her each ability did share
Became part of Neonatal Intensive Care
When she put on each nursing shoe
Would always end up going to NICU.

Each morning when sun would rise
She was an angel in her disguise
Back in those days a person knows
All white were all of her clothes.

Of course now must start to admit;
Love all her patients could never quit
Each day more in love with her fell
Hearing stories she had to tell

Jim Horn

This is all true with no fake news.

May God bless her. Nurses in NICU are special. Our son Justin was born at only 24 ounces, he stayed in NICU for 89 days. We brought him home at only 3 and one half pounds on morning of the 90th day. They were angels and he is now ten years old- a miracle child. A fav my friend. A7
