Being admitted to the hospital was a very frightening event for me, considering the serious condition I was in. Along the way, I encountered many doctors, nurses, caregivers, and staff, all of who looked after me with such kindness, professionalism, and dedication. But for one nurse, in particular, I will never have enough thank you to give.

I recently read a quote from Mother Teresa that read; “It’s not about how much you do, but how much love you put into what you do that counts.” Erika, I will forever remember your kindness, your laughter, encouragement, and support in helping me heal and I will never forget the way you made me feel. It was a great privilege and an unforgettable experience to have you as my nurse. I have immense gratitude to you for all you’ve done for me. It’s more than you will know!
