Before this experience, my graduate and career plan was to earn my specialty in pediatrics, begin practicing as a nurse, and return to graduate school after a couple years of experience to earn my specialty in neonatology. Working at La Grada increased my drive to fulfill this plan. I absolutely loved every moment that I spent caring for the infants. It was difficult knowing that the children were orphaned, and it will be difficult knowing that the children I will work with in the future will be dealing with a variety of medical problems, however, I look forward to facing this challenge and helping better the lives of more children and infants in need.
