Eduard is better than the energizer bunny! He never stops working with his patients. He covers so his coworkers can go eat, and he eats last if he even eats at all. He is continuously with his patients, never sitting down at the nurses' station. His heart goes out, especially to patients who have no visitors. On his day off he traveled to Abilene (3 hours away) to pick up the daughter of one of his patients who was dying. She had no way to get to Lubbock to say goodbye to her dad who died 2 days later. His compassion is unmatched and he truly cares for his patients and their families. Eduard always goes above and beyond his duties. He is a special angel.
