Kendra was my nurse for my scheduled induction. My baby was showing some abnormalities on his monitoring. Kendra decided to put an internal monitor in and check me. When she did, she found out my son's umbilical cord had come out first. She called a stat code and kept me calm as I was rushed for an emergency c-section. Kendra explained everything that was going to happen while being compassionate and calming my fears. She stayed with me the whole time. Kendra is our hero. She saved my son's life and we are so grateful!
