  Nursing in America is a delightful journey into independence and self-fulfillment.

Like countless other Filipino nurses working abroad, I have carved my own little niche in my chosen profession.

  “Woof!”

  I am hallucinating. That couldn’t be a dog who just went through the revolving door of the ER and is now just outside my triage booth. No way!

  Nurses always have a euphoric response to bulging veins, the ones which bulge before you even apply a tourniquet. No 22-gauge angiocathethers, no need for a vein probe, no need to call our vein expert. Just that quick pop, a gentle slide into a vein and Yes, you’re home.
