​​​​​​​I was terrified and alone and Aneetha offered to hold my hand and stroked my hair
I was admitted for stabbing chest pains and was unable to breathe without extreme pain when I met Nurse Aneetha. I was frightened, suffering, and uncertain about what would happen next but I felt as though I was part of her own beloved family. She wasn't just doing her job, she genuinely cared about helping me understand what was going on.

I was terrified and alone and Aneetha offered to hold my hand and stroked my hair like my own family would've done. I am forever indebted to her personally for taking a scary, painful situation and ministering to me with her kindness and human touch.
