My cousin is in the ICU. He has pneumonia but along with that, he has CHF, failing kidneys and other difficulties that come along with Type I Diabetes. Reba was so caring and understanding with him. He is blind and she would let him know when she came into the room, exactly what she was doing (big or small). She just understood that he had some special needs. She even made sure family was kept informed. She made sure we were comfortable. Even when things were not so happy she was singing a tune, making a joke. She was always happy and enthusiastic.

Reba, thank you so much for making me feel comfortable when I was in the ICU and taking the best care of me. You have no idea how much I appreciated you trusting me enough to wean me off the drugs that were keeping me calm. You are a kind, sweet soul and one of the best nurses to walk the Earth. Please don't ever stop being you because you are truly amazing at what you do!

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