Andrew was G's critical care nurse initially when G entered ICU after experiencing a three-stroke event. Andrew was professional, knowledgeable, compassionate and extremely attentive to G's needs. Also, Andrew was kind and very patient with all our family members and our questions. Andrew praying with us before G's craniotomy touched our hearts! He is an exceptional nurse! He made a huge impression on our family.

G is a minister and has been ordained for 50 years. He is a man of great faith in the Lord. When the decision was made to do a craniotomy to relieve the pressure in his brain, the family circled G's bed and laid hands upon him. Andrew joined all of us in prayer at that moment. We were so very, very touched by this, being a family of faith.

If Christ sends His cloak of compassion down to your nurses at OSF, Andrew definitely takes up the cloak and exemplifies all that Christ wants us to do, by giving to others. Please let Andrew know that the entire family sends their heartfelt appreciation to him.
