Thank you for being a professional nurse, answering many of our questions, and letting our nervous hearts feel at ease.
My husband is 39 years old and he needs to be hospitalized for a week. He's a kidney cancer patient. He had a major operation in the hospital! To remove a kidney, you need to remove part of the large and small intestine to get rid of those tumors. My husband had two straws inserted into his nose after surgery, and my husband was temporarily unable to drink water and food. Once, due to the need to take medicine, my husband had a small accident when taking medicine; when drinking water with the straw, he choked and coughed, causing his wound to be very painful, and he could not fall asleep. My husband and I were worried about whether the wound would open. Or will something happen, and we do not know? We told Jeff about our questions, and then Jeff patiently found a translator for us to understand what happened to us, patiently answered our questions about my situation at that time and his current physical condition, gave him a physical examination, changed his medicine, and patiently answered any questions we had, so that we could relax our nerves. Jeff is very kind and dedicated, using his own expertise to answer our questions and help us. My husband and I were very impressed. Thank you, Jeff, for your help. Thank you for being a professional nurse, answering many of our questions, and letting our nervous hearts feel at ease. Thank you very much!
