Frontline Nurses Were Saving Lives While Silently Falling Apart — One of Them Wrote It All Down
from The Advisor with Stacey Chillemi · host Stacey Chillemi
While the rest of the world was home in lockdown, ER nurses like Martha Hoy were suiting up in garbage bags, watching colleagues break down in supply closets, and making impossible decisions with no roadmap and no relief. Nobody came to save them. They just kept showing up. Martha has written the account most frontline workers were never given space to tell — what it actually cost to be the person everyone else was depending on when the world stopped making sense. This isn't just a COVID story. It's a story about what happens to the people who carry everyone else — and why we cannot afford to keep looking away. You'll learn: 🔥 The moment Martha knew COVID was unlike anything she'd trained for 🏥 How nurses improvised care when gowns, masks & ventilators ran out 💔 Why the "hero" label disappeared — and what replaced it 📖 What Martha's new book reveals that official reports left out 🌍 How trauma became a calling — from Las Vegas ERs to global missions Connect with Martha Hoy & Mother Martha Family FoundationWebsite: mommartha.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/17d7FPQ3BH/?mibextid=wwXIfr 📖 Book releases May 22, 2026:"2020, Year of the Nurse: A Nurse's Journey Through the Front Lines" Learn more about your ad choices.
