As old folks say, marry a nurse and it will be like winning a lottery. Are you wondering why?
There are twelve fantastic reasons why marrying a nurse is like hitting the jackpot. Tell us if you agree!
Providing care to others is the center of the nursing profession. Needless to say, this is the first reason why nurses make great partners. They naturally give compassionate care to the people they love.
“I did not believe in love anymore when I got divorced. But then I met my nephew’s school nurse and got it the other way around. The way she cared for me and our kids everyday even if she’s the one who is really sick makes me feel proud of her. I’m glad I married again, and this time to a nurse.” – From Kenny, Minnesota
Nurses are naturally sensitive and empathetic when listening to others. When you want to talk about a problem, a nurse might not successfully give you solutions but you will definitely feel less alone. Nurses are trained to communicate therapeutically and they know how to be a good listener.
“Unbelievably, my wife could sense if I had a bad day at work. She would sit down and persuade me to talk about what was bothering me. She would listen to my whines without interruption and after, her simple words never fail to comfort me. I hate to say this as a man but she always offers a sturdy shoulder I could lean on in times of hardships.” – From David, Oregon
Because of the nature of their work, nurses have an incredible amount of patience. Handling persistent rude patients is no-sweat for them so outside work, their patience becomes second nature.
“After throwing a mini-tantrum after my husband made me wait for two hours, he just smiled and calmly told me that he had to work overtime. He explained how he had to help with an ongoing code in his unit. He forgot his phone in his locker, and I could still see blood in his crocs. When I asked him hours later where he got his patience, he simply said that my tantrum was nothing compared to the family drama he had to manage at work whenever there were not-so-alarming cases in the ER.” – From Kim, Minnesota
Nurses witness a lot of medical cases at work. They know the right time to worry about your health and safety. With their experience handling different cases of accidents and illnesses at work, they know the appropriate time to be worried.
“My wife, who is a nurse for 15 years, knows perfect timing. One day, I came rushing to her for extreme abdominal pain. To me, the pain felt unbearable! She examined my abdomen and told me that it was just intestinal gases from eating tons of sweet potatoes earlier that day. It turned out to be true, so I thought unless I was bleeding profusely or turning blue, she would never be alarmed of my health complains. But one day, I told her about a weird mole that erupted on my nose. Surprisingly, she brought me to the clinic right away. Days later, they found out I had skin cancer. I thank my wife for the early detection.” – From Glen, Maryland
Nurses know the importance of helping each other at work. They are used to working as a team to in order to make their workload lighter. Because of this, they are known to be good team players in an intimate relationship. A relationship is valuable when the two of you help each other, right?
“My wife has been a nurse for over a decade. It never fails to amaze me how she can multi-task in-between house chores, her job at the hospital, and her hobbies. She even offers a helping hand to me when doing our everyday responsibilities as parents. In large part thanks to her, we make an amazing team.” – From Jimmy, New York
When you marry a nurse, you get lifetime free medical advice from your spouse. This perk will save you from waiting in line at clinics just to clear your confusions about your family’s health.
Your nurse spouse will also ensure that you will get immediate medical attention when something is wrong with you. After all, health is a family’s irreplaceable wealth.
“You’ll know you married well when your wife puts health on top of everything. But I think that’s perfectly normal when you marry a nurse. My children and I are lucky to have my wife take care of our health well, from healthy meals up to routine check-ups.” – From Dane, Oakland
In the case of worried patients scheduled for surgeries, nurses have the amazing talent to talk through a patient’s fears. The same talent will help you get through the tough times of your life when your spouse is a nurse. Nurses have a particular ability to calm down stressed patients through conversations, and you will find that a simple talk with your nurse spouse can make your problems feel lighter.
“Whenever I’m having mood swings or premenstrual syndrome, I’m glad my husband is there to help me through it. He has this amazing talent of talking through the problem until I feel better. I guess that’s one of the things they learn in nursing schools!” – From Rosy, Kentucky
Phlegm, blood, urine, stool, intestinal gases – these things are normal for nurses. They are also used to seeing people get naked for surgical procedures and routine physical examinations. For these reasons, you will have less insecurities when your spouse is a nurse.
“When we first got married, I had trouble adjusting to my wife’s type of conversation over meals. She’s a nurse and whenever I asked about her day at work, her stories were filed with all sorts of body fluids ! I later figured out she had a strong stomach; she had no problems cleaning our dog’s messes whether it was poop or plain vomit.” – From Drake, Louisiana
Nursing is one of the few professions with stable salaries nowadays. There is a continuous need for nurses around the world so they are rarely unemployed. When your spouse is a nurse, you will seldom worry about unemployment or insufficient income. Average salaries of nurses range from $60,000 to $100,000 annually.
“I was laid off during the Great Recession last 2008. It was a major blow for most of my co-workers that time. Fortunately for my family, my husband’s work as a nurse was not affected by economic downfall so we were able to survive it.” – From Julian, Alabama
Nurses are used to working under pressure. They can quickly prioritize and make an important decision in the middle of a busy, overtime shift. This trait is handy in times of emergencies. It’s great to have a spouse that can still think clearly when you have lost your wits in an emergency situation.
“Our daughter was having a very high fever and she suddenly had a convulsion. I thought I was brave enough but I just stood there frozen when it happened. Good thing my wife is a nurse and she hurriedly got a basin with iced water. She bathed our daughter’s head in the basin and the convulsion stopped. She had to direct me about driving them to the hospital since I was completely shocked.” – From Alexis, North Carolina
Nurses know the best choices in their field. They know who the best doctors are and where the best medical services can be found.
“When I got pregnant, I was really worried about giving birth. Good thing my husband is a nurse and he assured me that we would consult the best OB-Gyne in our area. The same thing happened to our son. He personally picked his paediatrician. I know we’re in good hands since my husband knows our doctors very well.” – From Tracy, California
Lastly, who could not feel proud if their spouse’s job is to save lives? Nursing is a noble profession anyone could be proud of. It feels awesome to brag that you have married someone who saves lives every day.
“I take care of our son every day when my wife goes to work. She is a nurse and works by day while I work at night. One day, when I was about to pick up our son in school, I heard him talking about his mom’s job. I felt proud to hear our son bragging about how his mom saves lives every day!” – From Johnny, Colorado
Now, are you convinced that marrying a nurse is like winning the lottery? Calling all nurses out there, share this list and ask your friends if it is worthy to marry a nurse. Let us know of their reactions in the comments.

It’s been a rough couple of years for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Facing a barrage of criticism for repeatedly mishandling its response to the COVID-19 pandemic and more recently monkeypox, the agency has acknowledged it failed and needs to change.
CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky has tapped Mary Wakefield — an Obama administration veteran and nurse — to helm a major revamp of the sprawling agency and its multibillion-dollar budget. Making the changes will require winning over wary career CDC scientists, combative members of Congress, and a general public that in many cases has stopped looking to the agency for guidance.
“If she can’t fix it, she’ll say, ‘It’s not fixable, here’s why, and here’s what needs to be done next,’” said Eileen Sullivan-Marx , dean of the New York University Rory Meyers College of Nursing, who has known Wakefield professionally for decades.
Other former colleagues said Wakefield’s experience as a nurse, congressional staffer, policy wonk, and administrator give her the perspective and leadership tools to rise to the occasion, even as they acknowledged the magnitude of the job ahead.
“She has high standards, and she’ll expect people to perform,” said Brad Gibbens , a former employee and the acting director of the Center for Rural Health at the University of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Sciences. “She’s very fair, but you need to know what you’re doing.”
Wakefield will have to navigate rough waters in the wake of a series of missteps by the agency. The CDC botched the COVID testing rollout early in the pandemic, issued confusing guidance on prevention measures such as masking and quarantining, and has been slow to release scientific findings on the fast-moving coronavirus.
Walensky has stressed that, as part of the reset, she wants the CDC to give Americans clear, accurate, and timely guidance on community health threats.
“I am confident that the appointment of Mary Wakefield will be instrumental in accomplishing our goals to modernize and optimize CDC,” Walensky said in a written statement. “It is clear that Mary is an action-oriented leader who can lead effective change.”
Following an internal audit, Walensky announced plans to restructure how the agency communicates with the public, to eliminate bureaucratic redundancies, and to help the CDC better interact with other parts of the federal government.
Wakefield’s first day on the job was in mid-August. She declined to speak to KHN for this article, but those who know her painted a rich picture of her management philosophy and style.
NYU’s Sullivan-Marx said Wakefield’s experience as a nurse makes her well suited to solve the complex set of problems facing the CDC, which she compared to a patient in need of stabilization.
“When you look at someone in a bed in intensive care, all you see are beeps and lines and monitors going off — people moving in and out like a train station,” said Sullivan-Marx. “The nurse is central to that for the patient, pulling all of that together.”
Sullivan-Marx also said Wakefield’s perspective as a front-line health care worker could help the CDC better understand how clinicians will receive and interpret its guidelines and recommendations.
For most of the Obama administration, Wakefield led the Health Resources and Services Administration . HRSA, a division of the Department of Health and Human Services, is responsible for a wide portfolio of programs — those that serve people living with HIV, provide compensation for people injured by vaccination, and document disciplinary action against health care providers.
Former HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius called Wakefield a “change agent” who was able to win the trust of HRSA staff members, many of whom are full-time employees, not political appointees.
“Folks understood that they were there before she came in and they’d be there after she left,” Sebelius said. “They had to be convinced that she was a good leader and they were going to follow her. That’s pretty significant, that she did so well in that agency.”
(Sebelius is a member of KFF’s Board of Trustees . KHN is KFF’s editorially independent newsroom.)
Sebelius said such experience could be helpful to Wakefield at the CDC, which employs just over 12,000 people, some of whom could be skeptical of changes. COVID was a serious stress test for the CDC, leaving some staffers wondering if it had lost its way.
Sebelius also noted as a plus Wakefield’s experience working with the CDC as acting deputy secretary of HHS. She was nominated to be deputy secretary but never confirmed because of political squabbles over abortion.
Details about changes coming at the CDC are still trickling out, though top brass have said they’ll need the support of Congress to implement them.
Sheila Burke , head of public policy at the law firm Baker Donelson, got to know Wakefield while working in Congress. She said Wakefield’s experience on Capitol Hill will come in handy when dealing with lawmakers who sit on committees that oversee the CDC.
“She’ll be keenly aware of the role of the members who care deeply about these issues,” Burke said.
Top health officials have had a hard time justifying the federal government’s pandemic response to certain members of Congress. Walensky and Dr. Anthony Fauci, the Biden administration’s lead medical adviser, who will soon step down , faced intense questioning from legislators on several occasions.
“I think she’s uniquely positioned to understand how you navigate that relationship,” Burke said of Wakefield.
Multiple former employees pointed to what Gibbens, from the University of North Dakota, characterized as Wakefield’s “infatigable amount of energy.” He said it wasn’t uncommon for him to arrive at work to phone messages she’d left him at 4:30 in the morning.
He described Wakefield as someone who knows “when somebody is trying to play her.” But he also said she doesn’t take herself too seriously. He recalled a kitschy animatronic fish on her office wall, a nod to her love of fishing. And the time she declined to fly on Air Force Two from Washington, D.C., to North Dakota, choosing to take a commercial flight “like a regular person.”
“She said, ‘You gotta be really careful with that stuff. You don’t want to get used to that,’” Gibbens recalled.
The work ahead for Wakefield could be a stress test of her belief in the human value of public policy. Walensky has said the changes she hopes to implement at the CDC won’t happen overnight, and it’s likely they won’t be easy.
Much like the CDC in the current moment, in 2005 Wakefield found herself at a possible turning point. That year, Wakefield’s brother and two of his children were killed in a car accident that seriously injured her sister-in-law and young nephew.
“Health policy as a focal area of my work before, now felt of very little consequence,” Wakefield wrote at the time in the Journal of Forensic Nursing.
Then she received word that her former boss, Sen. Kent Conrad (D-N.D.), had joined with others to introduce the Wakefield Act , a bill aimed at improving emergency medical care for kids. Even though it didn’t pass, it reminded Wakefield that pulling the levers of government can have real-life consequences.
“They acknowledged my family’s loss and put their support behind legislation that can affect the lives of children of other families who may have a chance at survival,” Wakefield wrote. “Public policy is important — isn’t it?”

How is Mary the greatest role model for Christian mothers?
Faith and Discipleship Catholic Faith How is Mary the greatest role model for Christian mothers?
Mother’s Day has a deep spiritual dimension. Mary, the mother of Jesus, is the greatest of all mothers. Motherhood has always been a sacred and noble vocation, but Mary raised it to even greater stature when she became the Mother of God. As the mother who is “blessed among women” (Lk 1:42), Mary gives us the clearest and most inspiring picture of what the ideal mother should look like, and every Christian mother would be wise to take her cues from the one who excelled at motherhood like none other.
Mary was “full of grace,” or put more simply, God lived within her. This came naturally because of her upbringing. St. Ann was Mary’s mother, and the elder Ann taught her young daughter to be loving and kind, attentive to God’s Word, and obedient to God’s will. With such a firm foundation, Mary was so favorably disposed to God that when the archangel Gabriel appeared to her and said, “You will bear a son,” with deep faith she trustingly replied, “Let it be done to me according to your word” (Lk 1:31,38). Every Christian mother loves God with all her heart and responds favorably whenever God calls.
Mary was overshadowed by the Holy Spirit (Lk 1:35); it was by the grace of God that she conceived. Every conception is a miracle, and every Christian mother knows that she is a partner with God in the ongoing work of creation, deeply aware that her child is a gift from God. As a result, when a Chri
