My mom has been a nurse for a long time now. She started out working in the Emergency Room, moved to Rehab, and is currently a nurse at a Medical Home. I see the way she expresses her humanity and empathy towards her patients. It has really inspired me to help others in my future, however, I plan on working with newborns, not adults. Working as (hopefully) a Neonatal NP will allow me to help new life that just came into the world in a matter of seconds. I want to be able to help the newborns, especially the premature and sick ones, live to pursue a purpose in life. Their lives will be literally in the palm of my hands and it is up to me and my knowledge to make them better. It takes a lot of strength and patience when working with NICU babies. There will be ones hooked up to a million wires or ones that have certain birth defects. Every life that is born is precious, despite what is wrong with them. I want to make a difference in their lives from the very start. Scholarships are very important to me simply because I have wanted to pursue my future career since I was in 7th grade. Most people think your career choice will change in high school, however, I have been passionate about mine ever since. I do not want my parents to have to worry about paying for college just so I can live out my dream. My parents deserve to use their hardworking money for themselves. Scholarships would allow me to go to college without having a major load on my parents. They would influence my life more than anything because I would get the opportunity I have always wanted for myself. There's nothing more in this world that I want than being successful and happy. I hope with enough scholarships, I will be able to make myself and my parents proud throughout my nursing career.
