Current Goal

I would like to send this travel bug on a far flung journey to celebrate my daughter’s life made possible by caring Nurses. Due to Rachel’s illness, we don’t get out often so hopefully this travel bug can go to many different places. So, snap a photo if you can, and if you have a story about a nurse or nursing care in general jot it down. I will update Rachel’s nurses on the journey!

About This Item

Rachel

A Tribute to Nursing Travel Bug *

My daughter (Rachel) was born with a Syndrome Called Cri du Chat. (http://www.fivepminus.org/) After spending many weeks in the hospital she came home with a trach, feeding tube, on oxygen, and attached to a heart monitor. The doctors and nurses in the neonatal unit did not expect Rachel would live for very long. We just recently celebrated Rachel’s 16th Birthday! I don’t know if she would have made it this far without the dedicated home health care nurses that have assisted with her care. Coincidentally I now work at a nursing school featured on the keychain that is attached to this Travel Bug. This TB is a tribute to home health care nurses and nurses overall who play a very important and vital role in Health Care in America.

Picked this up to bring to Cape Cod. I has a fob attached from University of Texas School of Nursing. That is where my Godson's wife just finished her nursing degree. Will deposit in a cache on Cape Cod with hopefully an ocean view.

Thats soooo awesome!!!

I was so fortunate to have several nurses who helped me car for my mother when she returned home.
They gave us so much.... so much that I cannot put into words...
