-: My name is Megan Major
and I am a pediatric intensive care nurse.
When not in the States, I work in African countries.
I have worked 16 hour shifts
delivering an average of 185 babies a day.
I have worked eight hour shifts on a hospital ship
off the coast of Madagascar and the coast of Cameroon
doing surgeries on mass tumors of the face and neck.
I've worked in 12 hour shifts, four days a week
in a local Bush Hospital in a very rural part of Togo.
