She is a Hero of Mine

I am thankful we have nurses that can by touched by the human side of their skill. My wife is one of the ICU nurses there in Baghdad with the 10th Combat Support Hospital. In the heat of the moment you want her by your side fighting for your welfare. It does not matter who you are friend or foe, skill and daring are shared with equal parts of compassion. She is a hero of mine and I miss her dearly. She has mentioned the closeness of the medical brotherhood in that hospital. It's what keeps you sane. Still there are those quiet moments when she calls me and we pray together. The human side of my nurse mate echoes in her wavering voice as she talks about the injured children. A thousand miles can not separate us then. It is a gift of God that keeps us. We are thankful to serve together. We are blessed to share what He has given. In His Service, Brad
