My husband suffered severe head trauma and his condition was not survivable. I remember very little about the two days he spent in the ICU, but I want to specifically recognize Nurse Kara. She was our Angel Nurse. She treated him with such compassion and respect. She would talk to him and let him know what she was doing and what was happening every time she was in the room. She took the time to answer all of our questions and although I'm sure she was extremely busy, we never once felt like we were infringing on her time. She took the time to grab a chair, hold my hand and sit with me, letting me know that it was clear what an amazing man he was because of all the people who loved him very much. I was able to get through the two worst days of my life because of your amazing, compassionate staff and our Angel Nurse, Kara. I will hold Kara in my heart for the rest of my life and can never express all the gratitude and love I have for her.

Thank you, Kara, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
