Why did I choose the acadamic discipline of Nursing

# data[].attributes.body
I have always been drawn to the medical field and have a passion for helping others.  Ever since I was a kid, I have been fascinated by the world of medicine. Nurses always seemed so cool and capable, and I knew that I wanted to be just like them. Whenever I find myself in the hospital, whether as a patient or visiting a loved one, I watch the nurses and doctors in awe, marveling at their dedication and the incredible work they do. I chose to pursue nursing as my field of study because I want to be able to provide comfort and support to those people that are probably going through the most difficult time in their lives. I want to be able to make a difference in their lives and be there in their hardest moments.
