It's David Hoffman filmmaker, and I'm about to show You a clip from a documentary I made on American nursing on nurses, Toe honor nurses.

And this clip shows one of the five nurses who have been honored by an organization as great American nurses.

This guy is a cancer nurse, working, pediatric.

He's working with kids.

It's about the roughest thing I think you can do to be a nurse working with Children who have cancer, and my daughter, who is a nurse practitioner and a great filmmaker colleague John Barrett went to this place and just spent the day with this guy and heard him express himself and felt first hand.

What it feels like for your kid.

I have cancer.

I think it's a beautiful sequence.

I honor American nurses.

I honor nurses.

Let me just say for the incredible job that they do it for the incredible job that this guy does.

He's going to express in this clip why it gets him down.

Boy, I understand the kinds of things he sees on a daily basis to look on these kids faces and their parents.

So take a look.

Tell me what you think I love the comments on.

I hope this helps you support American nursing and feel for these families.

This is Bob Wilkinson, a pediatric oncology nurse.

Bob takes care of very sick Children and their families, Children with cancer or other disorders.

Super Cala.

Fragile is stick.

Xbl Odo.

She's even know the name of it is something quite precocious.

OK, I am a nurse to help people.

That's who I am.

I guess mostly would think the most heart wrenching thing I I've done or do may be dealing with the death of a child, but I don't know if that's really it.

Uh, most heart heart wrenching thing is not to have the answer for a mom or dad who asked why their child has cancer.

When you're looking for answers, it's not having the answer and being able to comfort a parent.

Please pick up that line.

Thank you.

That's what they told you.

They make a sweet three.

Sometimes they don't stop talking like they do in those initial morning rounds.

Come in and go out and we go on looking what's in charge?

We're just gonna have to watch it.

I can't think of anything else.

We haven't had a Foley catheter doing chemo.

Platelets will find him grow good this morning.

Yeah, that's what they thought initially was.

Well, I see you're come back.

Sit down.

I'm just going to run with them.

Sit down and ask her to tell me what?

What's going on.

Where?

Dane, it's so nice to have you.

Will you be long so I could get your vital signs?

I am growing old.

Here I am.

Oh, come on.

So that's what I give my kids when they're scared.

And I think one of us, I'm a solid figure on the nurse, And, uh, I'm a big guy, so I have an older guy.

So they look maybe at me like a grand poor daddy.

But you gotta get in love.

I think that's with anybody.

You got to give him touch.

You got to give him ah, confidence in your voice and sincerity.

You got to give him Ah, hope, But you still have to be honest with him showing Kerry.

I mean, people feel that they see it in your eyes when you come in as a nurse of me, they'll see it in your eyes.

I've had kids told me that our parents, that's it.

And they'll see it in your smile.

It's everything is your whole entity.

My grandfather used to work a steam shovel.

You're seeing a steam shovels and dig big scoops of dirt and stuff.

He used to do that when he got new chains on a steam scoop.

He take us for a ride and put us into scoop.

You want help?

I got to say, um, in sometime.

Okay.

You can run over there.

Cars.

Yeah.

Okay.

Just stay in here and watch this go down Throat doing okay?

You guys use that paradox Mouthwash.

You got any sores after you in your mouth after chemo?

You got to know how the nurses feel, how the patient's feeling, how the families feel without that personal understanding.

I think you get you can get lost in the machines and the beeps and the blips cuts it down.

I'm getting old.

I'm tired.

So are you gonna do when you go home?

What?

Steak and shake.

Okay.

What do you get?

Onion rings.

What do you usually get steak and shake?

Bless her heart.

She's She doesn't smile anymore.

touch her mama.

So every time we go in there and we mess, whether she cries, it's hard to make her feel good.

Mom does with touching her.

But, you know, as a nurse, you want to make him feel better.

You don't want to cry when you're doing something with thumb on the hole.

You can do something with most kids, but she's so miserable there alone or their mother or father or wife.

They're looking for you to have some kind of comfort, some kind of word and empathy, because they're going to raid drills, deal stress.

They're going through the unknown.

I mean, nothing's more clear than that.

Be on the floor when they will, in any diagnosis the child and see that look on mom on a parent's face, especially your apparently is just like a kick in the gut.

But then you have to realize what are they going through and then how to deal with it.

So then they could begin do the progress so they can begin to listen to what's going on with child.

They can begin to prepare themselves, too.

Listen to the physician, too, to move on from there because it doesn't stop watch.

Dad really likes to help people because his dad has a very good heart and he loves to help people because Dad believes very good things in his heart.

And he believes it.

Dad split.

He believes it.

That has given him good things in his heart.

He believes in God and that believes in having a good heart has respect for people.

And he's a good nurse for people.

It's very proud of Dad.

You gotta establish some kind of spirituality, are they?

Especially if you deal with death and dine, you have to be able to believe in something.

That's that Deck Samantha's own.

Yeah, there's just a little bit left in there.

It didn't take it for somebody.

This is the heart medicine.

So big ones that we had before the chemo.

So sit still pushing slow.

It's gonna be high up, so you're not gonna feel it.

Okay?

Only one person asked me about dying.

Choose 18 and I take care of her for almost three years.

Also like her daddy figure and I go sit on the bed and listen to her, and she talked about boyfriends to talk about her mom and dad issues she had.

I make her laugh or just let her cry.

And when she came back relaxed, that's the first time.

Never had a child say, I'm going to die I said, I don't know.

That's all I could tell her.

I don't know.

Yeah, it's emotional and it always will.

We enter Emotional for nervous.

He cares of child for me, it iss way.

But I have my ways of dealing with that.

I come here sometimes when it's really bad.

Uh, just sit and let it and talk to God complain to God called God.

Bad names try to make deals we have off from my life on occasion, but he hasn't take me apart.
