My cousin Melissa is graduating this May 2020 with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing (BSN) from Quinnipiac Collage.  Melissa and I grew up together and she is a very important part of my life. She pursued a nursing career because when she was just two years old she contracted a very serious childhood illness that she overcame because of excellent medical care. Our family is really proud of Melissa.  I created this collage to memorialize her great accomplishment.  Congratulations Melissa, you did it!  You will be a fantastic nurse.

I remember how well my family and I were treated when I was a young child and I wanted to give back and help other children and families.
