She fought with me, like a selfless mother, she cared for me and healed my physical and spiritual wounds.
I am 24 years old and I had a bone marrow transplant in the hospital. During the transplant, there were many obstacles. God put an angel in my life, dressed as a nurse, Mari, my mommy Mari, as I call her. She dedicated all of herself to my care in a supernatural way during the 7 months that I spent in the ICU. She fought with me, like a selfless mother, she cared for me and healed my physical and spiritual wounds. She talked to me and told me; come on, M, don't give up. She interceded with the medical team so that they would fight to keep me alive and out of danger. More than a nurse, she cared for me and gave me her motherly love.
