"One Angel's Hands" from composer Mark Salona's
ROMANTIC PIANO album seemed an ideal song to
dedicate to those who devote their bodies and minds
to the care, relief, and healing of those who cannot care
for themselves. Such valor inspires and humbles we
who cannot fathom such sacrifice and devotion.

From the pioneering Florence Nightingale who forever
changed medicine by instituting anti-septic protocols,
to the trailblazing Clara Barton whose humanitarian
First Aid saved many thousands of wounded soldiers
on both sides of America's Civil War as she founded
The Red Cross, to my own sister Linda who, at the
time of this writing, has performed my health care
routine for an astonishing 2, 258 consecutive days
without vacation, holiday, or sick day, there are
many different scenarios and motivations and
blessings to be found among their stories,
including my most recent part-time nurses
who have escaped socio-economic and
political oppression in their native Haiti
by abandoning the administrative careers
they held at home in order to work their
way up the medical caregiver field here
in the USA, overcoming linguistic and
cultural differences in order to succeed.

For most of us, our first and uniquely effective
pair of Angel's Hands begins and remains
with our own mothers. And on this occasion,
I salute my First Angel as she celebrates a
birthday. God bless you, Mom. You're in
very fine company among kindred spirits!

Love and Happy Birthday to Carol on Aug 4th!

  • Nursing is our LIFE

  • My Dear,

    I truly appreciated these thoughtful words what you wrote in this video:

    For most of us, our first and uniquely effective pair of Angel's Hands begins and remains with our own mothers. And on this occasion, I salute my First Angel as she celebrates a birthday. God bless you, Mom. You're in very fine company among kindred spirits! (including the whole description, of course!)

    Love,

  • My Dear,

    Once again, I come here to see you and view this thoughtful video...

    I'm so grateful Mother has written to me, and Mother's words touched me deeply.

    Mother told me: Terry meant the world to her. Dear, tears in my eyes....

    In addition,

    Lin told me: mom & dad always sacrificed for us to give us only the best of their ability...

    Have a peaceful weekend!!! We all love you so much.

    With love and hugs, Meiling

  • My angel Terry,

    This is meaningful to modern people.

    Through this video and your words, I get some Introspection indeed. Thank you so much for sharing.

    How do you feel recently? hopefully smile is always on your sweet face, and life is always bright and beautiful as well.

    Should I remove video from my album or not?

    Sending my hugs and love to Dear Mother, Lin and beautiful Terry

    Meiling
