Our daughter really bonded with her. The day she graduated, you could see the happiness on her face, but also sadness at the fact she might not see her again.
A patient's mom nominated Tanna for her caring demeanor and how she made the entire family feel at home while their newborn was in the NICU. "Being a NICU parent is tough," the parent stated, "All the nurses were outstanding, but Tanna stood out the most. She spent extra time showing us the tips and tricks with a premature baby. She also answered my thousand questions with patience. Our daughter really bonded with her. The day she graduated, you could see the happiness on her face, but also sadness at the fact she might not see her again. Tanna went above and beyond with all of us. She radiates positivity in a difficult situation. Within weeks, she didn't feel like a stranger; she felt like someone I had known my whole life. I hope she knows we will always be grateful for her help getting our daughter home."
