Taking Care
From a very early age, I knew I wanted to be a nurse. My mother was a nurse and I have always 36 her and the way she took care of everyone. I wanted to be just like her.
So, here I am, a 37 for the last seven years. I love my work. Now, my father is quite 38 . He is 71 and has heart failure, and a lot of other medical 39 . Up until April of this year, he was able to live alone, drive, and 40 all of his own needs. His health has broken sown swiftly. I’m the only girl out of the five children. Being the only girl and a nurse 41 me at the top of the caregiver list. Taking care of a sick parent is very 42 , not at all like taking care of other patients. I have to 43 my own family to be here with Dad. I know this is 44 I need to be but it is still hard. I 45 abut 12-15 hours day taking care of him. I want to spend all of the time that I can with him because I know that our 46 left together is short.
At the same time, I find myself 47 that my brothers don’t help more. Sometimes, it is days between their 48 . they all have families of their own and busy lives but…so do I. My eldest brother does help some. He 49 at night. He es in at 8 or 9pm and lets me go home. But he is up and 50 to hit the road at about 6 am. My 51 brothers pop in for 10-15 minute visits. It is 52 annoying. They say they 53 stand “to see Daddy this way” which I understand. It hurts me to see him so sick 54 weak, too. But …he’s our Dad. He has taken care of us our whole lives. I just 55 like we should all do our part to take care of him now.
