‘I could not save the rest’: Hero nurse remembers Pakistan’s nursery fire

A brave nurse works at PIMS hospital in Pakistan. Her name is not given in the story. She remembers a very sad day. This day, there was a big fire in the hospital's baby room, called a nursery. Many small babies, who are called newborn babies, were there.

The nurse saw the fire. She heard loud screams. It was very dangerous. She ran to help. She was a hero and tried her best to save the little babies. She carefully took one baby and carried it to safety. This baby was safe because of her.

But the fire was too big. The smoke was too thick. The nurse could not save all the babies. Sadly, 14 other newborn babies did not survive the fire. The nurse feels very sad about this. She often thinks about that day and the babies she could not save. It is a very sad memory for her.
