“I beg your pardon”- nurse John 😩💅the most iconic line

I'm so sorry for your loss. My grandfather was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and we lost him a few years back. Grandparents are SO special! 🖤

My husband is terminally ill and we personally thank every nurse, every tech, and custodial employee for their hard work, dedication and support. I watch faces go from gloom to big smiles.

So many of us in healthcare, really appreciate your work. We have been passing your videos around like a collection plate on Sunday. Thank you so much for posting.💙😺✌

I'm Mexican and was in healthcare for 7yrs. Hands down the best nurses I ever worked with were Filipino. Yes, I realize there are great nurses in every ethnicity but TBH I never met a bad Filipino nurse. They all cared so much. When I started I worked all the time. Usually five 12hr shifts a week because I wanted to help everyone out (and TBH I liked the OT money) but that's why I can't do it anymore. I burned myself out so badly and destroyed my health - I worked overnights, developed a decent alcohol dependence... I got out right before the pandemic and I've never been happier or healthier

Thank you for being so vulnerable with us 🥺 love you!

The ONLY podcast I will listen to. Nurse John, you are amazing! I’m a nurse in Scotland and honestly your content is so relatable 😂😂😂 also yesss 90s baby here, 94 and I feel the aches and pains too 😂

“ I like cooking”, at first I heard cocaine LOL I was like, damn he’s so honest tff 😂

Happy belated birthday, Nurse John! 🎉 Thank you for trusting your audience about your life. Your grandfather knew how much you loved him. God Bless you!

I’m not a nurse but I do have family in the field. You are so funny! You have a bright spirit, keep it and keep showing it ❤

John!! I love your story about your grandpa. I can relate to it in many ways. I used to care for an elderly woman, who died one day after her late 88th birthday. She was struggling like your grandpa, was on a lot of morphine, quiet, and heavily breathing. Pressure sores, bed bound, and very weak. But she always kept me company, loved to sing, and loved her fruit punch juice. When she was dying in hospice care, ultimately, she awoke from her sleep to say "thank you" to her family and staff that wished her a happy birthday. I also believe in God, his angels, and the Holy Ghost, and I know Our Father and his band of angels was with your grandpa. Grandpa would be so excited and proud of your funny shorts, your big heart, and would love to see you smiling and making us smile! God bless.

23 years a nurse here. I cannot agree with you more. ❤

אתה כזה מתוק ורגיש זה ממש טוב לדבר על הכל ולהוציא רגשות בדיבור זה מרפא ... ואתה שליח טוב בעבודה שלך לאנשים

I worked long term care for 28 years. The things I learned while doing so are unmeasurable. ❤

You are such a beautiful soul. I've been following you since almost the beginning. You helped me get through Covid...including the back to back deaths of my brother, neice and father. I will keep you in my prayers that you continue to help so many.

I'm so sorry for your loss. My dad was also diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer. He only got 6 months. It's definitely the hardest thing I've ever had to deal with, it's been just over a year now (May 20), still feels like it happened yesterday. Your father/grandfather is absolutely proud of you and the person you've become❤🌹 thank you for sharing your story.

Love your calming voice, personality, and humor. Thanks for letting your viewers get to know you. We're all better for it :)

God bless you John. Don't ever apologize for your grief. We don't ever "get over" losing a loved one. Keep living life joyfully. Cry when needed. Laugh as much as you can. 💙

Nurse John, I loved your 1st episode of, "I Beg Your Pardon"!!! The way you say it, I practically roll on the floor in laughter. Thanks for putting this on KZfaq, I was kinda bummed out thinking it wasn't going to happen. 😊❤

I am so proud of you 🫂I know it must have been difficult for you to be apart from the person whom you adore the most and who's been there for you throughout your ups and downs, all I want to say is Keep going and keep growing ✨️

My mom is a single parent and I also came to the US with her where she became a live in caregiver. Your and your moms story’s is so similar to mine ❤

Fellow healthcare worker and Taurus here, and I want to say how much I absolutely loved the first episode of your show🎉🥳🍾🎊! It was the window to what has made you such a beautiful soul. You have made me laugh on many of those after work days when I thought I was too emotionally drained to laugh. Thank you🥰 P. S. You need “ I beg your pardon”merch! 😂

Glad to hear you took a bold step to put yourself and your mental health at 1st place. Cheering for you, Nurse John! 😊

I'm 25 and I'm a senior caregiver and I work the night shift. I LOVE watching your video ❤❤❤.

My mom is currently in the hospital and I definitely appreciate the awesome nurses ❤. It gives me peace of mind when I can’t be around 24 /7. 😢

I don't remember who all of my nurses were when I got sick in 2019, but I am still so grateful for them (even the CPAs) and their dedication to their practice. I was in a lot of pain physically and emotionally from my illness and surgeries and my nurses always made sure I had everything I needed to be able to rest and heal as comfortably as possible.

Johnn, I'm so sorry for the loss of your grandfather. We lost my grandpa from asphyxiation as well after suffering from other things before, so I know the feeling of wishing/feeling like I could have done more. You have done incredible things since then, though! I can't imagine how many lives you have saved/impacted for the better!! Thank you for being a light in all of our lives and thank you to you and all the health care workers out there doing amazing things every day. 💗

I've literally broke in tears on "you're enough" passage Have no interest in medicine, it's just ur personality serving comfort all around❤thank uuu

Thank you for being so vulnerable and candid with us , this is why we love you so much ! ❤

What a great way to start an episode 👍🏼👍🏼 -the heart behind why you to took up nursing. Very inspiring, motivating and factual. Good job 👏🏽 Florence Nightingale and the rest of the gang are proud of your advocacies for patients and nurses. Can’t wait for your other episodes. 🫀

Thank you for this nurse John. You truly brighten my day. I am someone who had lots of anxiety these days. You’re amazing ❤

Nurse John! Thank you so much for this podcast and for sharing your journey with us🥰 I laughed, I cried, I can’t wait for more! Wishing you all the best.

there are always going to haters and people who fail their roles -- always prove them wrong, persevere! thank you for sharing your story, Nurse John. You are inspiring!

Bedside nursing is a soul crushing job. Thank you for sharing the difficulties you faced.

My first year of nursing is almost up and hearing you talk about your first year is so similar to mine. The imposter syndrome was so real especially keeping up with the pace of the med surg chaos. You talking about your Professor saying you’re not meant for this happened to me as well but she added a couple of other insults in there along with my first preceptor saying I was disservice to my university

so proud of you nurse john 🤍🤍 sending so much love and excited to keep listening and learning more about you!

Your story about your Ama... 🥺😢 Here's a giant bear hug from me, Nurse John! You were the best son/grandson, that's why your Ama remembered you despite his Alzheimer's... He must have loved you so much...as much as you loved him 💛

This was such a wonderful podcast and the story of your grandfather was so very touching. I think it's wonderful that you had somebody so loved in your life that even after all this time it still makes you emotional, and thank you so much for sharing this with us. ❤

You are literally are the best and so inspiring. Thank you for being open about the toll nursing school and the nursing profession can take on one's mental health. I feel so validated! Thank you thank you!

I’m so excited!!! Your humor always brightens my day :)

I am sorry for you loss John. I can feel your pain. You are blessed you had someone like him in your life. You are an amazing guy. He did a great job woth you. I can see you were in a loving home.

Awww, the story about your Amma is so heartbreaking but heartwarming. My dad passed within 6 months of his cancer diagnosis and I went through a lot of the same feelings. Remember to take care of yourself ❤

John you are amazing and you have blessed so many with your laughter, smiles and knowledge. Your grandpa and mom would be so proud to see what you’ve built. Keep going lovey. ❤❤❤❤

You are an awsome young man...I'm sorry for your loss,..my heart goes to you and your family..... your grandpa will always be in your heart....

I am so sorry for your lost. My heart is with you. Thank you for sharing with us. He is definitely watching over you. ❤

That’s my favourite line now to my family “I beg your pardon” 😂😂😂 xx

Nurse John, Thank you so much to touching on mental health and nursing! I have been a psych nurse for the better part of 5 years, and I frequently have to remind myself to care for my own mental health just as much as I care for the mental health of my patients. I promise that watching your videos is like a form of validation for all the complex feelings experienced as a nurse!

I'm so glad I get to witness your amazing creator journey loved this first episode and keep us healthcare workers having something worth scrolling through on break when we really need those laughs thru the tears the most xoxo

Thank you for this. We appreciate everything you do and I hope you know how much you encourage your listeners

You have a big big heart. His bless you. Go for your dreams, nurse John. You will be there one day!!!!!!

I can’t find the words, but Ty for sharing your experiences in nursing, but most of all the story about your grandpa. ❤

Awww …..I hope you stay this genuine as your KZfaq gets bigger don’t lose that

Your first episode was amazing. All the emotions. John keeps us laughing crying and surprised with all he does.❤

Thank you for everything 🙌🏼🫶🏼🌟💐🪴🕯🙏🏼♾️

Thank you for the recommendation of taking time to heal myself. I am a third year nursing student and could feel each and every word you said about how strenuous and daunting nursing school is. I am sorry about your grandpa. I am sure that he is watching over you from a much better place, giving you his blessings.

When you spoke about your grandfather I was sobbing with you. This really touched my heart. I've also lost family members close to me and although we learn to live without them, the pain never goes away. Thank you for being so transparent and relatable.

Super duper loved this first episode! I’m also a healthcare worker and I identified so much with what you’ve said in this ep. The anxiety, stress, and burnout is so so real. I’m still struggling with a lot of it now, but hearing about how much progress you’ve made with your own mental health journey and how therapy helped you a lot gave me some hope that I can get through this too 💖 Belated Happy Birthday Nurse John!🎉 Really looking forward to the next ep 🤗🥰

This podcast is so validating, thank you for sharing this and making all of us healthcare workers feel seen! ❤

Another 90s baby here, same year too!! Loved this episode and cannot wait for the next one. Never apologize for having any kind of emotional reaction when talking about your grandfather, my mother died 22 years ago of cancer in her 30s and every time I speak or ever think about her I tear up or cry. Some pain never goes away, but that just means you loved that person so much they will never leave your heart. So sorry for your loss ❤

The story of your mother and grandfather and family was very touching. I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s wonderful that you had each other and I hope you find joy in your memories together.

I love this!! All the emotions hit at one point or another. Im so happy you poped up on my feed. Not a nurse, i did help with my mom, dad and grandparents when sick and passing. At 18 i thought about nursing but decided i already paid it forward. Selfish yet for me the right decision. Also ive been sick a ton and always made sure i had the best snacks and reading material. I did prank the nursing students,nothing to bad. I loved all my nurses after 6 or so months and in and out of there. I missed my friends. Thanks John. 😊😊😊

Loved this episode so much!! ❤❤❤ I cried too! Thank you for shouting out how valuable therapy is! As a licensed therapist, the burnout is real for us too. I care so much about those I help and I found that super relatable! ❤❤ Can’t wait for the next episode. 🥰

Thank you for sharing all of this. ❤

I love your voice. Thank you for feeling you could trust us with this vulnerable story of your grandfather. You're a gorgeous human going far in life.❤

Congrats on your growth and success, what you do is such a stress reliever...and I can be soo grumpy but when I watch your skits its impossible for me to be grumpy😂

I'm so happy to hear this today, and I love how you describe your university experience, which is genuine and similar to what I'm going through as a nursing student. thank you for your inspiration 💪

Absolutely the best podcast ever!! Nurse John you are the best, I know how you feel to a point most of my life I was a Nurse's aide in hospitals in Michigan, USA

so much love for you and your content. i’m sorry for your loss and pain throughout these years , you are such an inspiration for turning grief into the most beautiful shining light.❤️ you are so strong and amazing ❤️

Thank you! I'm just starting out school to go into nursing and I love hearing other's experience and advice. So much valuable info you provided, can't wait to hear more ❤

So sorry for your loss 😢thank you for sharing yourself with us. ❤❤

The way you describe how much you love your patients and love your job, minus all the bullshit, inspires me to continue my search for a job I love. I'm one year as a med/surg nurse, and all I feel is burn out. I have none of that passion you feel, when I went into it thinking I would. In 2 weeks, I'm transferring to Maternity and I pray I feel your passion and can feel love and inspiration for my job! I want to be happy and give my best self, even when it's hard. Thank you for sharing your experiences, I appreciate it so much ❤

You're so amazing!! You really do make my days so bright with your content. We all love you Nurse John ❤💋💕🥰

Love watching your vlogs Nurse John, you definitely are in your element! Nursing is not an easy career, but it is a very rewarding one. Keep those vlogs coming!!

Sorry for your loss and Happy Belated Birthday John.x

Love your sense of humor....Spot on!!!

Thank you for sharing the story about your grandpa. ❤️

So Awesome the humor you’ve put to real(unbelievable)situations we come across. Thanks for sharing your heart🫶🏻

First episode of Ibegyourparrdon was beautiful! Thank you nurse John ❤❤❤

Love this podcast so much!! 😍 Relate a ton as a Montréal grad and ER nurse. 💉You're the best John! Keep advocating for yourself and your patients! 🙌🙌

Awww, sending you so much love!! You’re amazing ❤

Thank you for being so raw and vulnerable with us❤

My grandfather also had Alzheimers and died from a brain aneurysm. I was the only one of 23 grandchildren he remembered but not by name. My grandmother was the biggest inspiration in my life. I miss her greatly still. My mom did home health care to start and 5 years ago retired a CNA. She worked in nursing homes. I was a history major in college and got 2 degrees in it. My grandmother was so proud of me. I was the researcher of the family so it made sense for me to study history.

oh nurse John 🥹 I entered healthcare because of my grandma's post-stroke sepsis and my mom's breast cancer too. I can feel your love for your grandpa in my heart ❤ thank you for being our nurse

Thanks for being on the internet and actually be vulnerable and open and have feelings

I recently retired from a 7 year nursing career to be a stay at home mom/housewife. I do miss nursing but I’m glad I’m out. Things haven’t been the same since COVID. Thank you for being so transparent with us about your experience ❤ and don’t get me started on nursing professors…

I'm a certified nursing assistant and I can relate to alot of what you post. Been through and done that. 😂 Special fun medication is a much needed element in the daily life of working in healthcare.

Thanks for your time. You represent us all health care workers.

You are so open and honest! I don’t comment much, but you are such a beautiful soul that I have to say Thank you!

This is so exciting to see you have a podcast. I’m studying to be a nurse right now ❤ thank you for sharing your upbringing and your experiences 🥹

thank you for crying in your first episode. it was beautiful to see you be so connected to your feelings! it's inspiring because that's why we watch you- your authenticity and your heart!

Love, love, love Nurse John!!!

Dear John,your my friend now I love watching you. I remember things happening like that when I was a nurse in England. Thank you.

So touched with your story. Coming from a single mom of a son, my parents are definitely the greatest support for my son.. My dad is like his dad too. SO sorry for your loss.

thanks nurse john. i am so drained right now but I am happy after hearing this podcast gonna go to ep 2

thank you nurseJohnn for sharing ur story and ur struggles with us,,,, also that its ok to feel guilty for not doing something for oneself... I love ur videos n shorts, thanks for making us laugh and entertain...

You are such a beautiful person inside and out John. Truly you have the most beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing yourself with the rest of the world, sincerely you are a gift to all of us ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

10:13 Hi Nurse John! I’m from Venezuela and if there are doctors who really don’t have human warmth! My dad was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer in 2011 and I had to go to a urologist to get the special prescription of some medicines for him! And I asked him, “Dr., how is my dad? And he with a very high ego. Well, my friend, your dad doesn’t go beyond 6 months!” I kept my composure, I left there with the prescriptions and I started crying and screaming in my car! he died in 2021, it wasn’t 6 months, it was 10 years! But just as you love your grandfather and it still hurts you I know what it is to feel that pain and in my case it is perhaps more unpleasant because I had to do it by video call and it still torments me that it can’t be there for him or for my mom! I love everything you do! The love for your patients! Btw I need to see Mr Smith! ❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

I hope nursing students listen to this. It’s very supportive and informative.

Looking forward to the episodes to come 😁 can’t wait!
