While reading the novel My Sister’s Keeper it took me back to the year my mom died, just like Kate she too needed a kidney but wasn’t as fortunate to live long enough for it to happen. More depth into the book I began to put myself in all of the characters shoes, Kate and Anna were both brave. Anna was brave because she kept undergoing surgery for her sister donating stem cells, bone marrow, and blood which were all not easily done. Kate is also brave because she never once complained; she loved her sister more than herself and she already knew her fate was decided. ”My sister’s the one who’s always had to imagine life without me”.

In “My Mothers Blue Bowl,” (1170) Walker reveals the beauty of selflessness from memories of her mother. Her selflessness could be shown in her struggle to provide the standard of living to raise her children that she didn’t need for herself necessarily. It is depicted in the story when she works for a nice house then after the children move she downgrades to all she needs.

Florence Nightingale was a very nurturing nurse. When she was younger, she claimed she got a call from God asking if she would do well for him alone and not for the fame, she obliged to the commitment (Aller).

Maghiro Jacinta Personal Philosophy of Nursing This is a philosophy of nursing that reflects the beliefs and values of Jacinta Maghiro.
