I had never experienced the compassion that Yamri showed me that night, and I will never forget her kindness.
I was in quite a bit of pain from my C-section, and I was worried about my daughter. One of the NICU doctors called to say my daughter was not doing well ... I truly thought I was going to lose my daughter that night. I was inconsolably crying, and Yamri was there to help me through the most challenging, terrifying, and heartbreaking night of my life ... I wanted to go to the NICU but didn't know how to get there, as I could not walk that far post-C-section. Yamri said she would take me herself, and she took me as quickly as she could. ... I had never experienced the compassion that Yamri showed me that night, and I will never forget her kindness. I think of her every day and wish that I could see her again and introduce her to my daughter.
