My entire life, I have been told about Daphney. I've heard about how wonderful she was, how supportive and amazing she was. I've listened to Mom sweetly remember her hundreds of times. Fast forward 25 years, 2 months and 29 days and there I was, with the nurse who helped deliver me. When Daphney walked into the room, Mom immediately knew who she was - from 25 years ago. Mom couldn't believe it! She jumped up and hugged Daphney and we all cried. It was the night before our baby was born. We shared giggles, stories and love that evening. Daphney took care of us all until her shift was over and it was time for her to leave.
The next night, Daphney came back. There I was, 25 years after she helped me take my first breath, relying on sweet Daphney. Trusting her when she said it would be okay, following her directions, listening to the blessings she was speaking over our baby. Our baby girl came that evening, with Daphney by our side. What an honor and special blessing. We love you, Daphney!
