    Everyone has a story. When I was fourteen, my mother told me how the nurses gently cared for my great grandfather after he was diagnosed with stomach cancer. The nurses’ care allowed him an additional eleven years with his family. Beginning on my sixteenth birthday I would witness my grandmother praise the nurses each time they helped her recover from her yearly brain tumor removals. When I turned eighteen, an alumnus from my high school came to share the steps she took in achieving a nursing career, affirming it was the best decision that she had ever made. At twenty-three, I watched closely as ICU nurses cared for a close friend, who was in a coma, as if they had known her for her entire life. Now at thirty years old, I regularly bear witness to nurses performing miracles as they advocate for patients with acute cancers. I often find myself in awe of their work and eager to get to that place in my own career. I am finally at a place in my life where I feel really ready to create my own story.…

I was born and raised in Accra, Ghana, where there are not many hospitals or nurses to provide the much needed medical care for sick people. Education has always been an essential aspect of my life, but growing up in a single home in Africa did not make it easy. I was exposed to the medical field at an early age because I was fortunate enough to participate in a clinical volunteering program held in the city where I lived in Ghana which gave me a life changing experience. During that period of time, I was able to recognize how nurses are the most important people in the health care field. The sacrifices they make to give an individual top quality care are what make nurses phenomenal people.…
