Nurses are angels on Earth and it isn't a job it's a vocation. After my stroke I was paralysed down one side of my body and during the night I needed the bathroom. I really didn't want to press the buzzer as the nurse on night duty was on her own in the ward so I decided to try and hop to the bathroom being an independent bugger (as all injuneers are ) anyhoo long story short, I didn't make it and collapsed in a heap on the floor which brought nursie galloping down the ward.

After explaining to her what I was trying to do she "lightened my darkness" by giving me a lecture I would never forget about being stupid and thoughtless in NOT letting her do her job in looking after her patients. That same nurse spent ages with me at night when she had the chance encouraging me not to give up and keep positive.

I owe that young lady much more than I could ever repay
