...Nini created a sense of family in a very professional way. My Dad had been in surgery from 8am to 2pm. He had open heart surgery. Later that day, while being monitored by the nurses, he started bleeding more than usual. We were told at 7:30 pm that Dad had to return to surgery to investigate the bleeding. When the family arrived and we were presented with the consent form, we had to make the hardest decision of our lives. Nini shared with us a personal account of a time she also had to make a difficult decision, and that today, her father is doing very well. Her compassion and reassurance gave us hope. We signed consent for a return to surgery, and today, Dad is also doing very well. Thank you Nini!
