Some Clients Are Really Worth Being Proud Of...

I have lots of young clients who accomplish awesome things. This young woman ranks really high on my list of courageous people. She works for Duke University as a scrub nurse and was invited to accompany a team of Duke doctors and nurses who went down to Haiti to assist the victims of the horrendous earthquake for 10 days. She didn't hesitate to say yes. Her family and friends supported her decision and her two young daughters have another reason to know their mom is a hero.

She isn't the one talking in this video, she is the one in the ladybug scrub cap and you will never recognize her on the street. But I know her and I'm really proud to say I do.

I think you should be proud to know her and she is a hero. Anyone who goes over there to help out should be considered the same.

SarahGray,

As a Dukie, I'm tempted to say all associated with THE university of NC are wonderful human beings, but I might get in hot water with Ellie Shorb (#1)! Nice of you to brag about your giving client.

Not a real person

San Diego, CA

I once thought that I wanted to be in the medical profession, but I'm too emotional. People who work in medicine have a special something that I just don't have, but they do have my utmost respect.
