I was a patient for 2 weeks during which time I had very severe pain the doctors couldn't control. After the first week, it had drained me, physically, spiritually and emotionally. Edward was my nurse for 3 or 4 days and proved himself as a lifeline. He took the time to talk to me, let me cry with him and release all my emotional tension. He even offered to pray for me and came to visit me several times he was not assigned to me. Edward provided the emotional strength I needed to continue my recovery and go back home to my family. He is a huge credit to the nursing profession.
