NOMV Race Around the World

As a veterinarian, I can tell you that the job is definitely not cuddling puppies and kittens every day. Realistically, I have many more days of tough conversations and situations. I love what I do and the animals I care for but my work truly makes me more emotional and stressed than some people can imagine, and that's without the human interactions or financial stress. If everyone took a moment to breath and think from a place of understanding before lashing out at veterinary staff, we would have less triggers that have led to so many lives being taken. I encourage everyone to look at nomv.org and speak to a veterinary professional about their experiences. Offer a word of support. We can all only benefit from seeing each other with love and patience.
