I have to nominate Tracy Taylor for being the most incredible nurse I know. As she came to work one day I found Tracy holding the hand and consoling a patient with end stage liver disease until she fell asleep. I found out that Tracy had advocated for the patient with the transplant coordinator at another hospital and helped the family understand why not to take the patient home against medical advice.

My admiration continued as Tracy heard the family wanted to take their wife/mother to look at Christmas lights one last time and Tracy made that happen for the family despite initial answers of no. She gave this family one of the most beautiful gifts...a special time and memory with their loved one.
