And to ALL the PINOY NURSES here, this one's for YOU (and ME):

YOU are DEFINITELY PINOY if you give TENDER, LOVING CARE to all your patients, no matter what...

In Saudi, at least 90% of the tertiary hospitals (private/government) there assign PINOY nurses ONLY to their VIP units... I guess that explains a lot.

Mabuhay ang lahing PINOY!!!

I totally agree with you sistah
