Amy Berrigan created a story board for my grandson, giving a daily picture of his experiences, which is priceless to me. Equally as important to me was the poster she made with his feet and hand prints, declaring his love for his mom and dad. She was always informative and chatted easily about his day.

Amy gave us a wonderful connection to him that we desperately needed. I am his grandma and watching my daughter deal with this was just additional heartache for me. Amy reached out to her in a way that was so natural; it communicated genuine compassion, empathy, and respect for what my daughter was experiencing.

Although my grandson’s complications never allowed him to make it to the surgery he needed; the entire staff never allowed us to feel like we were alone in this process. Amy shines above them all which makes her a treasure because she is among true jewels.

Thank you, Amy, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
