I will never forget this awful moment in my life and the brightest of my memories of this situation will always be Tiffany and the comfort, care, and genuineness that she provided!!
My first nurse met upon admission was Tiffany. I had absolutely no idea why or what was causing my severe jaundice, which was painless; however, was causing much anxiety and concern. Well, from the onset, Tiffany, was upbeat, positive and her cheerfully and truly caring demeanor was a most welcomed relief and made the horrible situation feel POSITIVE!! She was very knowledgeable, responsive, and quick to comfort. As chance would have it, the news of my diagnosis came horrifyingly after the results of my MRI were announced, it was a mass, the dreaded "C" word, and the worst kind- pancreatic. I was crushed as though a piano had fallen on me from a 10 story building. Not only did Tiffany comfort me in my dismay, she was there, almost what felt like constantly, checking, praying, and ensuring that my EVERY NEED was not only met: but met with a SMILE and genuine wish for wellness!! Above and beyond does not come close to what/where and how Tiffany cared for my Bride, who was equally devastated, and myself. I will never forget this awful moment in my life and the brightest of my memories of this situation will always be Tiffany and the comfort, care, and genuineness that she provided!! The WORLD needs more TIFFANIES!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU, GOD, for sending me one of your most blessed angels on this planet during this most trying phase of my life!!
