    COVID Nurses Lived What You Only Watched on the News

    COVID nurses remember what the rest of us never saw: hallways lined with beds, names written on paper bags holding reused masks, a colleague cutting a trash bag into a gown, goodbyes said to spouses over Zoom. They went from hero cookies to being feared at gas stations in six months, and nobody ever asked if they were okay. Martha Hoy, ER nurse on the Las Vegas frontlines and author of 2020: Year of the Nurse, tells the story behind today's strikes, staffing crises, and violence against healthcare workers. You'll never sit in a waiting room the same way again. ────────────────────────────────────────── CONNECT WITH MARTHA HOY 🌐 Website: https://mothermartha.com/ 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/17d7FPQ3BH/?mibextid=wwXIfr 📚 Book: Becoming Mother Martha: From Adversity to Greatness, https://www.amazon.com/Becoming-Mother-Martha-Adversity-Greatness/dp/1736267027 ──────────────────────────────────────────

After a car accident that made front-page news and an abusive marriage, she fled on Mother's Day; she didn't know what she liked, what she wore, or what she wanted. If that blankness sounds familiar, it isn't brokenness — it's the space where you get to choose.

If you feel like a shell of yourself, that isn't weakness — it's what survival costs, and it rebuilds one day at a time. Martha Hoy, nurse, author of Becoming Mother Martha, and founder of the Mother Martha Family Foundation, shows where rebuilding starts.
