She told me, "This is what I live for".
Nina is such an incredible nurse and person.  She came to the ED to deliver my baby girl.  I was in so much pain and very scared.  In a very stressful situation, Ms. Nina stayed calm, encouraged me, and safely delivered my baby girl without an OB present.  I will never forget thanking her after I heard that our baby girl was healthy and crying.  She held my hand, gave me a hug, and thanked me for allowing her to be a part of such a beautiful experience.  She told me, "This is what I live for".  Ms. Nina is the prime example of an exceptional, caring nurse.  She even came to see me in postpartum with my baby's footprints all decorated with beautiful stickers.  After a long shift, she still took the time to personalize a gift for me to take home!  Thank you, Ms. Nina, for all that you do.  We will remember you forever and hope that you know how talented you truly are.
