Gabrielle is sincerely the sweetest, most kind-hearted person I have ever come across. It was obvious how much she loved her job as soon as she walked in the room. There was this aura about her that left me feeling content and blessed that my husband was able to have her as his nurse. I was usually scared about leaving his side, but that wasn't the case when Gabrielle was his nurse. She assured me he would be in good hands if I wasn't there and allowed me to go home and rest because I was far past being exhausted. I didn't have to worry when Gabrielle was with my husband and not only did she care for him, she cared for me as well. She was a shoulder to cry on when I couldn't bring myself to be strong and she was an ear to listen and her smile comforted me beyond measure. Gabrielle was truly a blessing to us and we are both beyond thankful to have gotten to know her.
