Tonya, I was your hospice nurse and before I left for that evening after our visit, I turned back around and kissed you on the forehead. You were so sweet and hugged me, thanked me for something that comes so naturally. I am thankful to have met you and your beauty, learned of your struggles and outstanding personal strength, and to have been able to keep you smiling and comfortable until you were called Home.
Love,
Katy, BSN,RN-CM
