I will tell you how wonderfully Tessa treated my husband while he was in this unit at St. Luke. He was dying, and her kindness and concern for his comfort and me and my family was unbelievable. She brought me a recliner to sit next to his bed and hold his hand and warm blankets to comfort me. I was very sad and distraught. She called me "Sweet Lady" and brought us beverages and some food. She told me I needed to eat, and I followed her request. When my husband died, she cared for his body. We came in to see him one last time and say goodbye. She hugged me as I cried. She held me up as I walked with my family to the elevators. I will never forget you; you are a true Gem in this world. Thank you from the bottom of my broken heart.

Note: This is Tessa's 3rd DAISY Award!
