So, Dr. Ives, you got more than $250 million for nurses, and nobody's ever done anything like that. Tell us about it. Well, you wanted us to go out there and get scholarships, because we don't have enough nurses in rural parts of the country, especially nursing homes. So this is called Nurses for Nursing Homes. Here's the beautiful part. We had about $100 million, but you're the best negotiator I've ever met in my life. And you appropriately said, "Go out and get the governors," because they should chip in every single one of them, and every single one did. They knew one way or the other, you're going to get it out of them. So all the governors came in, they actually wanted to do it because it's the right thing for their states. They've been great. And so we got now more than a quarter billion dollars of grants that go to nurses that can get up to $50,000 a year. There's a lot of money. And no matter what kind of education you get, we can make sure that you have an opportunity as long as you're working in one of these facilities. So we have all the details on the website. It's up now. Start applying. Start getting your money. Nursing's one of the best jobs out there. I'll speak as a doctor. We can't do anything without nurses, so please come help us. We love our nurses, and we're taking care of our nurses, and it's my honor. Thank you. Thank you. God bless you, sir.
