Lori Carlson was my Mom's nurse during a prior visit and my Mom asked if she could take her home then. During this visit, my Mom did not return home with us. Lori was our nurse throughout the day, making sure my Mom and our family was comfortable. She kept track of the hospice nurse for us, always on time with my Mother's morphine, and always looked my Mom in the face when she spoke to her. She was with us during my Mother's last breaths of earth. She was so kind. And when we finally left 3 hours later, we felt so good knowing Lori was going to be staying late to take care of her before the funeral home received her.

We are so grateful for this nurse's care and kindness on this day. We will never forget her.
