You were the only one who asked me how I feel here and about my condition.
This was an incident that happened when I was working in the Holiday Inn as a part of Covid 19 duty. As routine, one day I was going room by room to check the patients' vital signs. When I reached one room, after I finished checking, I was asking the patient about his condition. He answered and later he told his sister, "I have been here for a few days…and you were the only one who asked me how I feel here and about my condition. All were scared and running away from me. Thank you for talking to me. God bless you." When he was saying this, I could see tears flowing from his eyes. This was an overwhelming experience for me. It made me feel happy that I could be solace in my patient’s difficult time.
