Sister Shares Her Twin’s Life As A Nurse And The Details Are Truly Eye-opening

Working in the healthcare field is quite challenging and exhausting, nurses and doctors have to work an incredible amount of time until they reach the point of mental and physical exhaustion.

However, we are still oblivious to so many other aspects of their lives that can only be experienced firsthand. We always assume that being a nurse is a job like any other, but the reality is much different, it's not pretty at all.

In order to shine a light on the subject, Laura McIntyre decided to share her twin sister Caty's story and everything she goes through as a nurse. She posted a photo of her right after her 4th shift in a row, looking absolutely exhausted with tears in her eyes.

“She didn’t really follow in anyone’s footsteps or have a lifelong dream of becoming a nurse. One day, she just decided to go for it! Once nursing school started, she definitely knew right away that Labor & Delivery was her passion.” Laura told Bored Panda

Laura added that she and her twin sister are “like two peas in a pod,” which shows just how close they are. “We are identical twins, so we have a very close, unique relationship. We do almost everything together, and we talk all day long. Our husbands didn’t know what they were in for! Oh, and we live only 1 mile apart!”

“Caty has always kept a level head in stressful situations. Of course, she has her occasional break down (like you see in this picture); but she handles herself so well, which is part of the reason she makes an incredible nurse.”
