An Altruistic Nurse

"O honcy nurse, what news?"

The Nurse is Juliet's caretaker. She is considerate, warm-hearted, and open to Juliet. Juliet trusts her with her secret love for Romeo and she helps Juliet through all her troubles. Altruistic is the best word to describe her because she sacrafices herself for her lady. As said by Juliet many times, she is a good, sweet nurse who has helped her throughout her life.

Examples of times when she was altruistic were the many times when she helped Romeo and Juliet communicate when they could not see each other, when she listened to Juliet openly and respected her opinions, and the times where she held Juliet's secrets safe.
