,MY INSPIRATION! Napoleon Hill once said We
can observe from the sorely tried and run
through the mill of merciless biographies
of men of destiny, that every one of them
was 1as variance before they 'arrived.
Fate often tests the mettle of which we
are made in various and sundry ways before
placing great responsibilities upon our
shoulders. 4 To all the nurses who have
taken the time out to express their
gratitude and those who sent their words
of encouragement. YOU ARE ALL MY
INSPIRATION..
, DEDICATION
This humble work of mine is dedicated to the
following people, who encouraged me to dream,
taught me with love and understanding and waited
tor me, with patience:
My father, whom I know is very proud of me even
if he did not live long enough to see where am
right now and how helped raise the family after his
untimely death.
My mother, the wind beneath my wings, who
believed in d in me and helped me overcome my
doubts about my capacity.
My sisters: Engr. Ma. Elena Gapuz- Altarejos,
who guided me during my early college years;
Elizabeth Gapuz Iciano, R.N.,B.S.N.,O.R.C.N., whose
primary reason for working in the U.S. is to help
send me to school, and to our youngest Or Eleonor
Artemia A. Gapuz, who is now a full pledged
dentist, a board top notcher and U.P.s most
outstanding clinician in endodontics, for bearing
with my salary during our most trying moments and
for striving to be a college scholar, thus making t
easy for me to send her to school
To all nurses, who have been my students and
who’s lives I've touched.
And most e specially to all my psychiatric
clients, who made me value my sanity.
