Reflections on 2020, the year of the nurse and midwife

Reflections of 2020 from one nurse

    Time of anticipation of post winter renewal Jan Aware something in China, news a little vague

  A few warm sunlit days in Gibraltar Feb sounds like a virus is coming our way

The opportunity to be in Pembrokeshire Mar Lockdown? Toilet roll supply in Wales

One working from home Apr One friend ill in ITU   

Blossom in trees and vulnerable deliveries May ITU friend dies now I’m angry and scared

Being clapped thanks June One of the good guys 

 Summer days by the sea July Maybe lockdown helped.

A birthday amongst concern Aug Supporting colleague’s work

   Finding ways to vary the routine Sept Tightening and tiers and tantrums

  The search for a rescue cat starts Oct A fresh wave brings saltwater tears

What about Christmas? Nov Creative work planning

Christmas, came, went Dec Did our best to please

And for an encore 2021 …?
