In the End
by: Tania LaFleur

I was diagnosed with asthma at a young age and spent a lot of time in and out of the hospital. I remember how vigilant and tender the nurses were with my mother and I as they treated me for yet another asthma attack. In my eyes, the nurses were superheroes, and their capes were replaced with stethoscopes.
