Melania went on praising nurses for showing “immense courage and selflessness” during these uncertain times “to help protect the health and well being of the American people.”

You are an inspiration to us all, and your actions show us the true power of the American spirit,” Melania concluded. “Thank you for your care and compassion. Our nation will continue to pray for your safety and strength. May God bless you and your families, and may God bless the United States of America.”

The uplifting video message comes a day after the First Lady donated 150 boxed lunches to the patients and staff of Children’s Inn at the National Institute of Health. According to a statement by the First Lady spokesperson Stephanie Grisham, Melania donated the lunches to “support those impacted by the effects” of the coronavirus and to “reach out to people in a variety of ways” during these unique times.

Last week, Melania sent care packages to hospital medical staff and children patients in 10 states that were the hardest hit by the coronavirus. Children patients received gifts from the First Lady’s Be Best initiative containing blankets, caps, tote bags, pencils, backpacks, stickers, Dr. Seuss books, and games.
