My 48-year-old fiancé had a heart attack on Saturday at 7:00 PM. I was so terrified as I watched her go away in the ambulance. She is my best friend; my whole world was gone it felt like. I got to the hospital to find out her left main artery was 100% blocked. A stent was inserted, and it fixed the heart attack she was having. The nurses got her hooked up to all the machines and to the arctic sun.
The next day she was begging to fade away. I started thinking I was about to lose my everything until Brandon was assigned to be her nurse. He not only corrected the issues she was having with a great positive attitude but also took the time to explain everything that was going on. He explained it all to me at least once or twice. Ultimately, he got her stable and gave me some hope and faith. I was lucky to have him as a nurse 2 more times and like the first time, he showed up with a smile on his face because he loves his job. He gave me positive pep talks when I was down.
The reason she is stable now is because of Brandon. He is a team player and has a lot to offer the nursing team on the 3rd floor ICU. He made the most traumatic experience I've ever had into a situation that I could deal with a lot better. My fiancé wouldn't be doing as good as she is now without Brandon. He saved her life and me too.
