I returned home from Baton Rouge last evening. I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed being able to help. The people of Baton Rouge, both the staff and the clients were extremely friendly and appreciative of our efforts to assist them. I have never been so proud to be counted among the numbers of our California Nurses.
I felt it was an honor to be able to help to the best of my abilities. I couldn't afford to send money, but I was able to get in there, scrub up and get my hands dirty. I really felt like I made a difference in people's lives. There arent many times in our careers that we are able to really do that. MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank you for giving me this opportunity to help people in my own country. Now, thanks to Wilma,if there was a way we could get into the Miami area to be of assistance, I'd be there in a heart beat...I understand they are setting up makeshift ER's in parking lots...
