My name is A and this is my story to fight my sickness. One day, I almost gave up and started to lose hope that I will ever get well anytime soon. She came to my room and stood by my side like she was my mother. Every time she entered my room, I started to feel much better. The only thing I remember that she told me that really gave me the strength and power to feel better, she said "Not to be weak or never to feel weak." She will be by my side the whole time. I will not let go until I feel much better. She gave me the hope and strength to move on in my life.

Thank you, Maria, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
