She sat beside me, held my hand, and assured me that I was strong enough to breastfeed.
She provided me with emotional support, encouragement, and guidance that helped me stay calm and focused when I had to pump milk. When I started to feel overwhelmed and unsure if I could keep going, she sat beside me, held my hand, and assured me that I was strong enough to breastfeed. She advocated for me with the medical team, ensuring that my wishes were respected and that any interventions were carefully considered. I held my precious child for the first time, tears of joy streaming down my face. In that moment, I knew that she had made a truly meaningful difference in my care, and I will always be grateful for her compassion and dedication.
