Nurse Uses Her Beautiful Singing Voice to Lift Spirits of Children Battling Cancer

One nurse in England uses her beautiful singing voice to lift the spirits of children battling cancer. This is such a lovely story about a medical professional going the extra mile to make sick children feel a little better. She is helping to put a smile on those faces. Watch this video to learn how one nurse is working to spread joy to sick children.

Life is often not a fun experience. Several instances during our time on Earth will bring about pain, hurt and heartache. Sickness and disease do not discriminate as they strike everyone, even the most innocent and vulnerable members of society: children.

Children being diagnosed with cancer has to be one of the worst things that take place on Earth. A youngster who should be outside playing with their friends and enjoying life being relegated to a hospital bed is enough to make even the most stoic, unemotional person shed a few tears. That’s a pain and suffering no child or family should have to endure.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Sally, a nurse in England, explained how she is doing what she can to help encourage and uplift the spirits of children fighting cancer. Not only does she help provide them with medical care, but she also sings to them, hoping to put smiles on those young faces.

For the past 20 years, she has been putting together special musical performances for sick children. She says that the idea came up after she was a member of a choir, performing for children and seeing how excited they were about the performance.

“And I thought, actually, the children that I look after in hospital don’t get that opportunity because they’re often in hospital for a really long time,” she said. “So, we came up with the idea of singing medicine.”

The incredible musical initiative has continued to grow over the years. Sally and her team even let the children pick and choose the songs the performers sing.

1 John 3:17 “But if a man has this world’s goods, and sees that his brother is in need, and keeps his heart shut against his brother, how is it possible for the love for God to be in him?”
