10. I have to say as I have had

more than my fair share of hospital stays in the fifties and sixties. I had chronic kidney stones back when they cut you open and took them out, I absolutely love nurses. They are special people as far as I am concerned and certainly have my respect. I received nothing but the best in care and compassion from them. They work under some very trying conditions from crabby doctors to snotty demanding patients. I've seen both and god knows sometimes they have to have more patience than a saint.
Fortunately, I have been free of the accursed stones for many years now but I would think that has not changed. I don't imagine you can be a nurse without having a caring soul.
God bless all of you from an old appreciative guy.
