DENTON, Texas — If you ever needed any evidence that nurses care vastly about every single patient they encounter, this is it.
A video posted last week on Facebook shows a nurse reacting as one of her patients stands up for the first time in 11 days.
The story as, posted by Texas mom Becky Miller:
“Our daughter, Bailey, had complete paralysis from the waist down for 11 days with no explanation as to why. This video is one of her favorite nurses coming onto her shift and not knowing that Bailey had started walking this day.”
The nurse immediately bursts into tears upon seeing Bailey, screaming, “Thank you, Lord.”
Miller said Bailey had no feeling or movement in her legs the day before. Doctors did not know what caused Bailey to lose feeling in her legs.
Commenters on Reddit immediately took the opportunity to commend nurses, and all of the work and long hours they put in daily.
“Nurses are great people,” one commenter wrote. “You’d have to be humanitarian to be a nurse.”
