Janelle showed me patience and compassion and was even my "little cheerleader," celebrating with me as I recovered.
I call Nurse Janelle my "Angel Nurse". She was with me my first two nights after having an emergency appendectomy at the age of 46. I was so scared, but she calmed me. It felt as though I was her only patient those two nights, but I know she took care of so many. She showed me patience and compassion and was even my "little cheerleader," celebrating with me as I recovered. I can never repay her service, but she will always hold a special place in my heart.
