Use your gifts

This past week, I have spent time with caregivers and have been humbled by their selfless hearts. I have heard of calls in the middle of the night resulting in immediate flights across the U.S. to be by the side of the patient when needed. I have heard of planned short visits resulting in enduring stays to ensure the support needed is received. I have seen a parent giving all that they are to a sick child at the sacrifice of self over and over again. I have seen the angels on earth in hospice nurses that provide the comfort and support needed by families over and over again knowing the pain and suffering they will see with each engagement. I have seen a daughter going to the bedside of a parent injured and requiring surgery while caring for her own child. Their strength and perseverance are immeasurable. It amazes me that there is room in their chest for the size of their hearts. I am in awe of their gifts, I am in awe of their sacrifice day after day ensuring necessary care is there when needed.
