Tonight a past patient chased me down to give me a thank you card and gift. I had tried to stop her labor because she was only 25 weeks. Unfortunately, I was unsuccessful. The miracle baby is now 10 weeks old and may be able to go home from the NICU soon. I can see such poor neonatal outcomes that it is nice to hear good updates. I work to fight for every little baby that can't fight for themselves.
"At a time when a lot was at risk for my family, you made me feel calm and very well taken care of."
if i was ever in need of neonatal care, you are exactly the kind of person i would want taking care of me. :)
