Hola Holly,

I can't find any question that relates the verb "ser" to being sick, but I've seen a question about professions that mentions nurses, though. Could it be possible that you've confused "enfermo" (sick) with "enfermera" (nurse)? Remember that when talking about professions, we always need the verb "ser" and not "estar".

Un saludo
