Allison has been caring for a patient that has been in the ICU for an extended period of time. The patient received a tracheotomy which hindered his ability to talk. Allison was able to communicate with him like a friend while she continued to care for him. One day he told her he liked Star Wars but had never seen it. Allison bought him a DVD set and a player. The patient was transferred before the DVD player arrived. Allison sought him out on his new floor to surprise him. She made her patient feel like family.
