Emily was the nurse who took care of my husband. She took care of him the last two days of his life. She was such a compassionate nurse, always asking me and other family members if there was anything she could do. Anytime I went to her to ask for anything she was there. The last two days my husband was alive he was in excruciating pain. She was in there constantly giving his pain medication so he would not suffer. I cried on her shoulder and she comforted me; when I needed to talk she listened to me. I cannot say enough words as to how special she is. She was with me when he passed away and when my family and I cried, she did too! In my eyes, she is the perfect example of what a nurse should be. I hope that the hospital appreciates the wonderful nurse they have in this young woman, Emily Perry.
