5 Lovely Things on Monday

On this Memorial Day I blog with a heavy heart.  This post is for the families that have touched my life and are leading a courageous fight against what seems impossible odds.  With that being said, today's loveliness focuses on INSPIRATION...

{1} Gussy's Pretty Things Yesterday

& my inspiration for Monday's Lovely Things :)

Photo cred: Gussy herself

{2} Being a Pediatric Nurse

It is a privilege to be a nurse; you are accepted into a family

during their darkest hours and happiest of triumphs.

Rawsi Williams said it best: To do what nobody else will do, a way that nobody else can do,
in spite of all we go through; is to be a nurse.

{3} Codi

This is the most inspiring young lady I've ever met.

And while she was only 20 when she lost her fight to cancer,

I can say- without a doubt- that she lived a fuller life than most adults.

{4} Art Therapy

See how art can heal :)

{5} Two amazing ladies who happen to be nurses

(& my roomies!!)

You will not find two better nurses for the "bald kids"

Hope you all had a good long weekend.

ciao,
