A patient was at the end of their earthly journey and their final wish was to celebrate Thanksgiving with their family. Plans were made to have their family celebrate at the hospital. Sheila went above and beyond by bringing in Thanksgiving decorations for not just the table but for the room. She made the environment special so that the patient and family could forget they were in the hospital. The collaboration to make this day possible was already outstanding but Sheila took it upon herself to take it one step further to help grant this final request.
