Carli was there to listen to me when no one else was in the room but me and my son.
Carli was one of the nurses for my son when he was in the ICU. Her compassion and empathy were unforgettable. The littlest of things meant so much to me. She handled him with respect and special care. She went out of her way to ask me personal questions about my son during his passing. She understood my anger and my sadness. She was there to listen to me when no one else was in the room but me and my son. She asked me what he was like and I shared pictures. It was comforting leaving his room knowing she was the one to take care of him that day. I will never forget her kind heart and the way she made my son so comfortable while he was there. She is a great nurse and I know in my heart I am not the only one whose life she has touched. She goes above and beyond and that is very special and appreciated while someone is in the process of grieving. She calmed me in my despair, she understood my anger, she gave me the perfect amount of space when I needed it, and came in to check on him when he needed it. She’s an angel. She was attentive and she cared.
