I can never repay the kindness shown in our darkest days.
My husband was in the ICU for 4 days before passing away at only age 48. Rachel was his day nurse and took excellent care before his passing. This was the most difficult thing my family has ever experienced and I sincerely appreciate her compassionate care. She was patient, explained everything in a manner we could understand, and made him comfortable. She even allowed me to lay in bed with my beloved, moving aside all the various tubes and rearranging the room so I could be by his side in his last moments. I can never repay the kindness shown in our darkest days. Thank you for all you did.
