N: Oh, what a beautiful name, and how old are you?

P: I have 13 years old.

N: Ok, and why you are here?

M: Hi, we are here because from yesterday she has a mild heartburn, and today it has become insensitive.

P: Yes, and today is so much strong, I also vomits this morning and I have a little bit of diarrhoea.

N: Let’s see if you have fever… Oh god, you have 38,5 C°. How’s going the heartburn?

P:  Worse, it hurts me terribly.

N: Now you will be moved to another department where you will wait for the surgery.

P: Thank you!

I decided to be a nurse when my aunt was operated on and, due to various complication that forced her to two months of hospitalization, I understood the role of the nurse and how important he/she is and their role in the hospital were, not only by giving the patient care, but also by offering them emotional support, which a doctor does not do. Obviously, this pandemic situation also helped me in the choice. As I said before, I approached this profession above all to my aunt, but my parents were also very supportive in this choice.
