There was virtually no question in pediatrics that he wouldn’t be able to answer. When he got his diploma, the sisters offered him a job at the children’s ward.
He is one of the youngest nurses at the hospital. He works in the children’s ward, taking care of the youngest patients suffering from malnutrition and hunger disease.
