My Perfect Girlfriend

When “perfect screams into a picture; oh my! My tongue seems so heavy in trying to describe this Venus trending mother Earth. It is said that there are seven wonders in world in then, I dare say she’s the eighth.                 It is commonly said that the beauty is in the eye of the beholder but then she defies this saying as she is all in all so beautiful. Yorubas would say “irun lewa obirin” she’s this kind of lady with Rapunzel hair the wonderfully brown to match. Her dazzling white eyeballs are so dreamy, it’s like gazing at the full moon in the darkest night.                 Moving down to her nose, “whites have pointed noses, the blacks have black noses” but she has a pointed straight nose. Her fresh face is adorned with a kissable dark lips with a slight touch of pink; that’s so wow! Her smiles are so lovely, and her ...

ADULT BEDWETTING!!!

Image
As much as bedwetting is usually referred to as a kid thing, it poses as struggle for some adults. Bedwetting in adult is entirely different from what children go through, it is embarrassing and shameful as far as an adult is concerned. BUT, you must know that bedwetting is involuntary and it is not your fault. This might not take away the shame you feel nor can it stop you from bedwetting but IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT.

We as nurses do not want to be seen as a people of negative or questionable characters but as a set of people who signed up to care for lives.

A few months ago, popular actress Regina Askia, (once a beauty pageant winner who eventually went to nursing school and has since been an activist for nursing rebrand) was on TV for the same purpose narrating how nurses are overworked and underequipped (such a combo to expect delivery). She sounded pained narrating her findings on the way nurses are being treated. More nurses who would stand together and give Nigerian nursing a new face. Different other individuals have also stood up to defend this noble profession by creating groups, spooning initiatives, feeding the media, et al. I got wind of a...
