When I first walked into my son's room Angie was just standing right next to him and speaking with him as he was her own baby and she didn't know I was there to see. I could tell right away she had a true love and concern for my boy. I nicknamed Angie immediately "Fairy Godmother". I was amazed by her. She was genuine, sincere, compassionate, but most of all she showed me that this was not a job, this was where she was always meant to be and it shows. My son is blessed to have her and when she told me she prays for him I knew I had an angel in the room, no longer a nurse. She let me cry and hugged me. She will always have a special place in my heart and my son was lucky to have her care.
