My mother was admitted into PCU for several serious health concerns. As a result of her condition, it was determined by several attending doctors that the best course of action was to make my mother as comfortable as possible until her death. My daughter was very close to her grandmother and was struggling with understanding the process of what was to occur and the effects on her beloved "Grammie".
The attending nurse, Logan Downes, took the time and effort to compassionately explain the process not only to my daughter but to myself as well. My daughter had been refusing to leave her Grandmother's side but after speaking with Logan she decided that her Grandmother was going to be in good hands and agreed to leave the hospital to rest. My daughter is currently taking her prerequisites for Nursing. She has stated to me several times she hopes that she will have the heart and compassion that Logan showed us when she becomes a nurse.
