Ashley sometimes wonder what her mother would say in these kinds of situations. He mother had been a kind and generous person, always putting other before herself. But she had nothing to do with Ash wanting to be a nurse. Ash, in her own way, surpassed her mother in caring. It wasn't that ASh was weak but she had always been a sickly child. The thought of being able to help children who were going through hard times had been wonderful in theory. But seeing them in the hospital? Having no control like that Ash moved her abilities to intensive care. It was hard but she liked helping doctors on major injuries. Compassion however was something that had been bred into her family.<br/><br/>"Being strong for others is the same as being strong for yourself," she smiled softly, "but sometimes it can be harder. And thank you for saying that. I'm not much of a fighter."<br/><br/>She was sure he was strong. Stronger than her anyway. But sometimes she wondered if he ever thought of how much people got hurt by trying to protect someone. she kept it to herself though.<br/><br/>"Just don't get hurt, okay?" she looked out at the Deadwalkers, "It takes a lot of energy to heal."
