My Aunt Florence Nightingale

My aunt was a nurse for many years before she retired. Through her working years she raised four kids and saved numerous stray cats and dogs. My aunt firmly believes that b-complex vitamins can cure just about anything. When her mother had a mild stroke she nursed her back to health with proper nutrition and strictly following her medicine schedule.
My aunt had two daughters and two sons, both the daughters went into the health care industry. One attends the Arizona school of health sciences programs, and another is in an advanced occupational therapy program. Health care jobs are always in demand. Before my aunt retired her husband’s job moved him all over the country and she always found work. Both her daughter’s are married with kids, so it helps that the programs offer online classes.
My aunt is still pretty active for a retiree, she’s thinking about taking some classes in the human movement program and doing some volunteer work within the local hospitals. Whenever I think of my aunt I always picture her serving in her community. I have always admired her servant heart and tried to follow that example. She’s a modern day Florence Nightingale for our family.
