Christina stayed by my side as much as she could throughout the night and I felt a little bit safer, and much less alone.

From the patient: Christina was my nurse for several nights, including the night that my paralysis spread to my abdomen and arms. Because it was night, my husband was home, and I was alone and terrified. She stayed by my side as much as she could throughout the night and I felt a little bit safer, and much less alone knowing that she was keeping an eye on me and taking care of me. That peace of mind and the kindness she showed is something that I will never forget!

From a Nurse Manager: This patient describes her time in the hospital as one of the hardest of her life. She explains how scary it was for her and her husband, but that the nursing staff were the bright spot during her stay. I am sure that Christina's actions as a nurse will stay with this patient and her husband and shows how compassion can truly have a lasting impact.
