I spend so much time in hospitals now due to work and school and I have to say that one of the hardest areas of nursing is peds. That is why I don’t do it. I can’t. The kids just break your heart.
But when I’ve had to do it, I’ve always come away with new respect for the parents of these children. Those who choose to become involved learn how to take care of their kids inspite of the wires and tubes and alarms and restrictions and so forth.
It just amazes me, every single time.
