I was in so much pain, I couldn’t get rid of it. Tanya recognized this and helped me through it.
After I was done with COVID, M handed me off to Tanya and I didn’t know what I was getting into. I didn’t want to leave M’s care, but to my surprise, there are two angels on this floor. In all the time I have been at hospitals, that has never happened to me. Here is another young lady so considerate, so thoughtful it’s hard to believe. I got her care and she made me very comfortable. She and I talked, and I found out she loves her job and I believe it by her actions; how she treated me and everyone around her I have never met anyone so upbeat, so kind, so considerate. I’m pretty sure she excels at her job because in my heart she does.
This is the same old terminal cancer guy. They put me in this bed, I was in so much pain, I couldn’t get rid of it. Tanya recognized this and helped me through it. One night the pain kind of subsided and everyone had been trying to get me to walk on my crutches. Tanya had offered to help me before, and I was feeling good. She was the only one I trusted to get me up. She set it up and I walked 20 feet. It’s not a big deal, but to me it was. It was the first time I walked since I’d been here. She is a unique and beautiful person who should to the top of her profession because she loves her profession as far as I’m concerned.
