Discount Medical Scrubs

My congrats go out to Stacey, a Neuroscience Nurse, who is the latest winner of our Editor @ Large contest. She’ll be receiving a $50 gift certificate to Lydia’s Uniforms that she can use to buy stylish new medical scrubs. Here is Stacey’s winning comment:

Nursing was simply a calling for me. At the age of twenty-four, I suffered a herniated disk while at work. I endured nine months of debilitating pain. At the time, I was a young wife and mother to a 2 1/2 year old beautiful daughter. This was to be the happiest time of my life. But the pain I experienced was so severe that I considered ending my life. Then, finally with the benefit of an excellent neurosurgeon my pain was relieved. The nurses that cared for me post-operatively renewed my faith that I could go on and accomplish anything that I set my mind to, which at the time included walking. Finally free from my pain, I decided to become a nurse. I understood the pain that my patients would experience. I am now a Neuroscience Nurse. I see patients with injuries so much worse than what I suffered. I am able to inspire them and give them hope for a life that is worth fighting for, by my example. Being a part of someone’s recovery is a gift that truly never stops.

If you didn’t win this month, stay tuned; next month’s Editor @ Large contest will begin later today.
