Bobby came home to find his wife Rayena taking a nap
next to their young son. To everyone in the world, it would seem like a sweet
moment. But Bobby knew something that all of us didn’t.
You see, Rayena is not just a busy mom, she’s also a
trauma nurse. She dedicates herself every day to raising her child the best she
can and also helping to save the lives of others. Bobby knows that deep down,
she’s exhausted and overworked.
In response, Bobby shared a letter he wrote in
dedication to his wife… this is simply amazing.
“This is my wife taking a nap. In an hour she will
wake up, put on her scrubs and get ready for work.
The tools and items she needs to perform her job will
be gathered and checked meticulously – her hair and makeup will be done
quickly. She will complain that she looks awful. I will disagree, emphatically,
and get her a cup of coffee.
She will sit on the couch with her legs crossed under
her and try to drink it while happily playing with the toddler that’s crawling
all over her.”
“She will occasionally stare off blankly as we talk;
silently steeling herself for the coming shift. She thinks I don’t notice.
She will kiss the baby, she will kiss me and she will
leave to go take care of people that are having the worst day of their entire
lives. Car wrecks, gunshot wounds, explosions, burns and breaks –
professionals, poor, pastors, addicts and prostitutes – mothers, fathers, sons,
daughters and families – it doesn’t matter who you are or what happened to
you.”
“She will take care of you.
She will come home 14 hours later and remove shoes
that have walked through blood, bile, tears and fire from aching feet and leave
them outside. Sometimes she will not want to talk about it. Sometimes she can’t
wait to talk about it.
Sometimes she will laugh until she cries and
sometimes she will just cry – but regardless of those sometimes she will be on
time for her next shift.
My wife is a nurse. My wife is a hero.”
If only all partners had this much love, pride, and
respect for their loved one. If you agree, please share this with your friends
and family!
