I woke up around 4:00 am with the worst chest pains. I hit my call button and Kellie showed up. She stayed with me, rubbed my back and helped me with my meds to relax. She came back to check on me before she went off for the night. When asking who she was today, I found out she was from a different floor and was up here when my light went off. She helped me calm down and relax and double-checked on me before leaving to go home.
She has stuck in my head since, and I wanted her to know that I noticed everything she did and I really appreciated it. She touched my heart and made my day. I even had to tell my family how great she was. Her voice was so soothing and she stayed so calm. She let me hold her hand when I was hurting and she even got on her knees to talk to me. We all know hospital floors are nasty, but she didn't care about that she just cared about me.
So, thank you, Kellie.
