My husband had a history of tinnitus and had to endure a non-stop, 24/7 train whistle screech that never goes away, the medication helps. So when he was told that he can't have his medication because he can't swallow liquid or solid food because of the tracheostomy, we panicked. Caitlyn heard us and called the doctor back and forth in order to get an IV substitute and keep my husband calm.
With her ready smile, patience, and kind demeanor - she helped my husband calm down on multiple occasions, too numerous to mention. The first 2 days after his tracheostomy, he was really having a hard time breathing because he was continually in a panic mode, not once did Caitlyn raise her voice or show irritation or frustration; she's always calm and soothing and steady as a rock.
She is an extraordinary "WOMAN OF WORTH". In my world, actions will always speak louder than words and she does what she says.
