Ebony entered my room following numerous days of anxiety and a prolonged hospitalization. She was warm, assuring, and made me and baby feel safe even though she was there for baby. She not only easily soothed my tired scared infant but she did the same for me. She brought her culture and humanity into the room which helped make things feel more like home and less sterile. Ebony's sensitivity and care gave me strength and helped me rise to the challenge of motherhood. Her energy will certainly follow me home at discharge.
