Nurses ... The Stories We Could Tell Kathleen Cumberbatch

Having been a Registered Nurse for almost fifty years, I've seen and done it all. My resume has to be shrunk to two pages, or else it would be at least four pages or more to detail everything I've done in Nursing. I've also worked in every area of nursing and feel blessed and fortunate to have so much experience and knowledge. One day I started thinking about it and decided to write a nursing memoir detailing some of the amazing experiences I have had. When it was almost finished, I thought how awesome it would be if other nurses wanted to document a memorable story or stories and never had the opportunity to do so. I reached out to many, explaining what I was doing, and invited them to contribute a story or more. Most of the responses were, "I don't have time, although I would love to; it's such a great idea." But thankfully, several others, some co-workers agreed, and "Nurses ... the Stories We Could Tell," was born. As I read each story, I was so inspired and blessed to be part of such an amazing group, who call ourselves 'nurses'. Keep an eye out, my personal memoir is soon to follow.
