My oldest inspired me to become a RRT in NICU. He's my miracle child being just 1 pound 14 ounces. I'm very thankful for the team that helped save my child's life!
:'} I am a NICU nurse here in the Philippines and Gosh..this really touched my heart.. I do hope one day we will have those equipments and special training the US and other 1st world countries have. It's really tear jerking moment when you see a baby from comatose that progresses daily then one day just wakes up and move around and blink and respond to pain.. And see the babies who develop septicemia be well and crying out so loudly.. :'} God does wonders..
To all the babies that make life worth living,kisses, To the parents that make a neonatal nurse suffer silently,cause nurses to quit,drink,speed, to try to cope.
Ahhhh ! This is my passion, becoming a Neonatal Nurse Practitioner!! I love babies but when I do become a NNP I would only be able to handle Unit 1 & 2 because Unit 3 is for critically ill babies & it's in that unit when an NNP has a higher chance of coming in contact with a babies death.
@theejesslynn I'm starting my senior year on august 8 which is my b-day too. I want to be a Neonatologist also. I'm praying the best for everyone who wants to help these beautiful babies whether you want to be a neonatal nurse or a neonatologist.
Praise is certainly due to all the scientists, technicians, researchers, doctors, surgeons, nurses, cleaners, porters and ancillary staff involved. Not convinced God has a great deal to do with it, really. Although having medical insurace is pretty close to a true blessing though . . .
