I only got to see my son for a short minute or two before he was taken to another facility and Amy got a video of the helicopter taking off with him.
I was a patient this past summer and delivered my son 13 weeks early. I felt blessed to of had Amy with me the whole time! She went above and beyond with everything. She was by my side through the whole delivery process. Once I was told that my son would be coming that day she came in and started prepping me for a C-section. She was so kind and caring about the whole thing, walking us through everything that we needed to know.
Then after my son was delivered I sent my husband to go be with him, the doctor was still working on closing me up and Amy came and held my hand. That small act meant so much to me knowing that I wasn't alone and had someone watching out for me. I only got to see my son for a short minute or two before he was taken to another facility and Amy got a video of the helicopter taking off with him. I loved being able to see this! She was so wonderful and I was so happy that she was my nurse. The next day she again showed such compassion and thoughtfulness. She did such a wonderful job and I hope to have her in the future.
