From the moment we met Becky, she immediately started explaining all the ways that could make me as the mom feel comfortable being at the hospital with my sick daughter. She made sure I knew about the kitchen, laundry, etc., always asked if I needed anything and let me leave to grab coffee or something to eat. She was amazing with me and with my daughter she was outstanding. I felt just hours after meeting her that she truly loved her job and her patients. She treated my daughter the way I would, with lots of love and care. After the doctors would come and talk to us she would make sure that I completely understood what they were saying and made sure that I didn't have any other questions. She then worked 3 night shifts where she was amazing she helped us give my daughter a much-needed bath and allowed me to get some sleep. My daughter was a cranky toddler through the night she needed masks to help her breathe and the patience that she had was remarkable. I completely trusted her. My daughter loved her as well. She would jump up to see her and give her hugs. During our time at the hospital, Becky would make sure that we were comfortable, talk to me about certain treatments that were needed and why. Becky truly is an excellent nurse. I completely believe I was as calm as I could be thanks to her. I really want to thank her from the bottom of my heart for all that she did for my daughter and my husband and me.
