ulled over and put the car in park. My daughter, she was 15, ran across the street to some cabins and knocked on the door and yelled for help. I lived 900 miles away and my sister was 2 hours away so my sister and I were on the phone with my daughter. My cousin was already at the lake and when she was asked to come and be with my daughter she didn’t hesitate. She stayed with her holding her while the paramedics worked on my mom. My mom didn’t make it and my cousin took her back to her cabin and stayed with her until another cousin came and picked her up and took her to my sister. There are no words to how grateful I am to my cousin. Read LessRead less about I’m not sure how to title the reason

explain why this figurine works perfectly. Amy allowed me to move in with her at age 20 when I was struggling to do my best to keep my Christian faith. She saw that my battle ahead of me was going to be hard if not impossible to do without any support and a godly home, for the one I was living in had caused me much grief. She began to teach me about the word of God in a depth I had never heard and encouraged me in ways that have only caused me to grow and gain stability in my faith. Amy has taken a mother role in my life as she has taught me how to do typical life tasks such as cleaning and cooking. She has no relation to me but shows the love of God in the most real way possible. She is a shining example of what it means to be a God-fearing woman. I look up to her and am forever grateful of what she has done to ensure that I have a better life. Read LessRead less about I was looking for a birthday gift for

I saw how important these requests were to her. When patient's requests are not filled before their surgery, how can they trust the rest of the OR staff to sincerely care for them during their surgery? With every passing moment she was with me, her anxiety level went from a 10 to a possible 4 or 5 (I knew I could not calm her totally, but I tried my best). Evidently this worked. The next week I came in to work and I had gifts from her. A plaque about Kindness and a Grateful Willow Tree Angel. She is my first Willow Tree. I am grateful to my patient as her act of kindness to me reinforces my desire to continually care for my patients the way they each need to be cared for. When I look at my angel every morning before I go to work, I am reminded of this each and every day. Read LessRead less about As a nurse I care for patients before
