She knew exactly how to care for him from 14.8 ounces to 13 pounds. She was always willing to do anything for him and us.
My son was born at 25 weeks at OU Children’s Hospital. Meagan was his primary nurse for 4+ months of our 9-month stay. He sadly passed away, but she provided AMAZING care to our son. She always knew when something was wrong and was always there for us as parents. She advocated more than any nurse I’ve ever seen. She truly wanted him to have the best care possible. She loved him like he was one of her own. She’s an amazing nurse and person. I couldn’t have handled many of those 9 months without her. She was always willing to go above and beyond as a nurse.

Caroline was one of our nurses for nearly our entire stay. She became one of his primary nurses early into our stay. She always knew what made him happy, sad, or mad. She would even hold him at times when we as parents couldn’t be there. I can’t even begin to describe how happy that makes me that someone was there loving my son like their own. She provided AMAZING care. She was made to be a NICU nurse. She knew exactly how to care for him from 14.8 ounces to 13 pounds. She was always willing to do anything for him and us. We looked forward to seeing her in his room. She deserves everything and I wish her nothing but the absolute best.
