The person I am going to talk about is very well known in our community for her caring as a nursing staff. Among the many dedicated professionals, nurse Yasmin Alhawsawi stood out. She was not just skilled in her duties but also possessed a warmth that put her patients at ease.

One rainy afternoon, my daughter M was burned in her hand, and I brought her to the center. She was febrile, feeling anxious, dizzy, and in severe pain. Yasmin Alhawsawi hooked her to the monitors and placed her in a bed. As the day progressed, she found herself feeling increasingly overwhelmed by the sterile white walls, the rhythm of monitors, and the distant sounds of medical staff going about their duties. Yasmin was comforting my daughter M and smiling, instantly lighting up the room. “Hey there, M. How are you feeling today?” she asked, her voice gentle and soothing. “I’m scared,” M admitted, her voice quivering. “What if something goes wrong during the surgery?” Yasmin took a seat by her bedside, taking M’s hand in hers. “It’s completely normal to feel that way,” she reassured her. “Let’s talk about what you’re feeling. I’m here for you.”

As they talked, M felt a sense of calm wash over her. Yasmin listened attentively, validating her fears while sharing stories of other patients who had faced similar anxieties and came through their procedures with flying colors. She explained the process of changing wounds in simple terms, answering every question with patience and understanding. “Remember, you’re not alone in this,” Yasmin said softly. “We’re all here to support you every step of the way—especially because you’re such a brave patient.” With each word, M’s worries began to fade. The kindness and humility that radiated from Nurse Yasmin reassured her that she was in good hands.

After finishing the procedure, Yasmin never left us. She was sitting beside M, ready with a warm smile and a cool washcloth for her forehead. “You did so wonderfully,” she said. "I told you we would take care of everything.”

As the days passed and M started getting better, she found herself looking forward to Yasmin’s visits. Each day, the nurse would check on her progress, offer encouragement, and even share a few laughs. Yasmin smiled, her eyes sparkling with sincerity. “It was my pleasure, M . Remember, it’s people like you who make my job so rewarding. Take care of yourself, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you need anything.”

With a heart full of appreciation, M hugged her tightly, feeling a warmth that would carry her through her recovery journey. As she stepped into the world outside the hospital, she held tightly to the kindness and dedication of Nurse Yasmin, knowing that even in the toughest moments, there would always be someone to support her.

Thus, in that cozy little town, Nurse Yasmin Ibrahim Alhawsawi continued to touch lives, spreading compassion one patient at a time, leaving a lasting impact that would be cherished forever.
