Fay took care of myself and my newborn son after our Cesarean delivery. Not only was she so helpful and knowledgeable in trying to breastfeed my son but she helped me get out of bed and shower. She helped with my son's first bath and she came in one morning after my son had been crying most of the night and just wanted to be held. My husband and I couldn't get him to stop crying. Fay came in and took him in between feeds to help us get some rest. After a week out of the hospital, my son was readmitted. We had been at the doctor's office from 10 until we were admitted at 1. When we walked through the doors I was a mess. I was hungry, in pain, and crying from frustration. Fay met me with a hug and ordered me lunch. She helped care for my son so my husband could run out and get me medicine. Fay is so wonderful, the unit is lucky to have her. I wish I could take her home to help us. If we choose to have another child, I hope she's our nurse. She is exactly where she was made to be. I can't even describe her, there are no adjectives suitable for her and her care. We love you!
