    I am a clinical tech on an ICU COVID floor and know exactly how you feel. It is not an easy job and it is painful to see people there alone. Definitely praying for your strength

      I’ll be praying for yours as well, you have to see it every day!!! I’m just ready for it all to be over, i hate that people have to go through this and lose their lives over this....it’s tiring 😪 thank you love 🖤

    I love how you always find a way to see the bright side of things! You're going to be an amazing nurse if you haven't already become one.

    I was intubated in 2009 when I got the "Swine flu" aka H1N1. I was 35-years-old. I did understand that I was dying. I could barely whisper to my husband "I don't think I am going to make it" but... here I am... because I had TWO amazing doctors one of them recognized the severity of my distress when I arrived into ER and he sent me straight into ICU because of my low oxygen levels. For older patients it a lot harder to recover. This job could be emotional 100% when you have compassion! I still remember 3 nurses from 2009 who made a HUGE difference in my daily life after I woke up from medically induced coma (spent 1 month in coma). Thanks for sharing this video. Hugs! You are a nice person! May God bless you!

    Thank you for doing such a selfless job and being great at it! As you gain more experience, you’ll learn to separate yourself from the emotional side and it will help you keep your feelings under wrap. It never gets easier just more tolerable. From one nurse to a future nurse!! Keep doing what you do! Btw, those are my favorite pens too!!

    I used to be a CNA at a nursing home. When covid hit I was working the covid floor. Out of 80 residents, 20 of them died of covid. I had so many people literally die in my arms. COVID SUCKS!

      this just hurt my heart to read, so much :( i'm so sorry you had to experience all of this, and I hope you've taken some time to cope/self care. I haven't experienced a covid death yet, but I have seen the worst of it, and I just wish it was over. i'll be praying for you :'(

    I really enjoyed your vlog, and the strength & resilience that you have is amazing. My aunt had COVID was intubated for a while & with lots of prayer and the fight she had she made it through and is doing well but it’s so hard watching patients go through this 🙏🏽 praying things get better for all of us. I love those sharpie gel pens they work so good!

      Oh my goodness, this comment made me so happy. I’m so glad that your aunt made it through all of that!!! I hurt me so bad watching this happen, cause i was literally talking and laughing with her just 2 hours before, and things changed so suddenly 😔 I’m just praying this all goes away soon, so we can stop this from happening. Thank God, your aunt is okay!

      Just go into work everyday with an open mind, and take care of yourself! Keep yourself protected, make sure you have on all of the appropriate PPE when you’re around them. They may be really sick, but they’re still human and didn’t ask for this virus that is hard to control. Don’t be nervous, you got this!!!! You’re going to do just fine ☺️

I always wondered if my badge will say Certifies nursing assistant or NA. I got nights 8 hour shift and alternating weekends. Would u happen to know what a schedule can possibly look like with alternating weekends? Mon- Fri? What about with the weekends? I’m just so excited to start. Also, is it easy to get more shifts if I’m already fulltime!? While school is not in session?
    Please send me your feedback. I love ya videos. Thankyou! Good luck with everything! 😊
