When God sends His angels to earth to perform miracles through people, there is always an astounding moment of a blessing. Recently, my heart gave out and a dear dedicated nurse Robin Thomas performed CPR on me to ultimately save my life. My heart was damaged, and I was on the list for a transplant, but soon realized after that I may not have much time to wait.
This nurse is one of my precious guardian angels sent from God and I will always be ever so grateful that she was there that day. To react and perform with dedication and perseverance to save my life is truly an act of what makes her a wonderful and caring nurse.
I will always be indebted to her knowledge and commitment to her patients and my family in her career to react quickly and to save lives.
Because of her actions in saving my life, I was granted a new heart, less than 2 weeks later.
I have been discharged and my recovery is going great; gaining strength and knowledge in caring for myself and ultimately for my family. A new heart, a new life! I will always remember this very special nurse. Thank you from the bottom of my new heart.
