Mothers & Nurses

ORANJESTAD — Mothers care, nurses care. A mother is a
kind of nurse too in a daily sense taking care of her chil-
dren. The nurse who is comforting a sick hospitalized child
is like a mother-figure at that moment. In common they
share the art of caring and compassion, the will to make
it right for you. All mothers in the world are honored this
Sunday, May 12th as also all nurses are celebrated dur-
ing this International Nurses Day. Give them the spotlight
they deserve and care for her especially on this particular
day.

On this day we honor the mother of the family, as well
as motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of
mothers in society. This is also a perfect opportunity to en-
joy a day with the family and spend quality time togeth-
er. On Aruba many restaurants offer specials on Mother’s
Day, check our newspaper of today and the past days
for some great tips and deals.

International Nurses Day (IND) is set aside to honor and
note the many contributions nurses make to society.
Nurses care for our loved ones at some of the most chal-
lenging times of their lives. They may run short of time, but
not compassion. In Aruba this day is part of a week-long
celebration, referred to as National Nurses Week.
