NICU is tough

Younger sister worked that in a big NYC hospital 50+ years ago. Back then they only called it "pediatrics". Coming home and going straight to her room without talking to anyone was not uncommon. Took a couple of years but she finally left that job after she married and was preparing to have her first child. After hearing some of her war stories, I was amazed she stayed as long as she did.
