Nurse Valeria is an extraordinary nurse. She was patient, kind, and understanding towards me and my son. She helped to prepare me for the upcoming trials that I will be facing in teaching/feeding my son with his feeding tube. She was patient with my son, gentle with me, and very encouraging. She allowed me to feed my son while she cheered me on. When I didn't know what to do, she encouraged me to ask the right questions. When I felt overwhelmed she reminded me that I can take care of my son. You need more nurses like Valeria. If you had more like her, plenty of parents would feel confident to take care of their children.

Thank you, Valaria, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
