Christopher Shafia, RN

Although patients are not normally discharged directly from the ICU, Christopher put my husband in the wheelchair, and off we went to the parking lot. When we got there, I went to the lot to retrieve our car while G and Christopher waited. As I got to the car, people began pointing and let me know one of our rear tires was perfectly flat. I drove up to let G and Christopher know, then Christopher told me to pull back into the parking spot, and he'd change to our spare. He did! In minutes we were off to the tire shop to get our tire repaired and replaced. While we both know how to change a tire, neither my 70-year old husband who'd just had surgery on his eye, nor me (I'm 75) were in any condition to do it ourselves. How can we possibly thank Christopher enough for his kindness and thoughtful help. He's amazing, and very special.
