I knew my husband was receiving the care that I would have provided if able.
Caroline cared for my husband while he was in the ICU on a ventilator during COVID-19. When I called, Caroline treated me as if I were the most important person at that moment.
I am a nurse, but Caroline allowed me to ask questions that I probably knew the answers to, but she provided hope and compassionate reality. Caroline assisted me in FaceTiming my husband, even though he was sedated. Caroline prayed with my husband and me. She went above and beyond to reach out to me after her shift to provide updates because she got busy during her shift and was unable to call as promised.
I knew my husband was receiving the care that I would have provided if able. I prayed to God, thanking him for placing this nurse angel at my husband's bedside.
