I was assigned to take care of this patient a couple of weeks ago and began to grow closer to her. Communicating with her was 1 because everything she wanted to say to me had to be written on a notepad. As a nursing graduate, I was able to 2 her mind by observing even a slight 3 in a patient's facial expression.
One day, when I was checking the patient,she 4 me on the shoulder to show me a note,"Do you think I could be let go 5 the hospital in a month to see my niece get married?,,Taking her hand in mine, I told her that I could not 6 her,because I did not want to leave her a 7 sense of hope. 8,I made her believe that I would be there with her every step of the way on her journey toward 9 . Hearing that, the patient gave me a 10 and a hug.
Day by day, I built her 11 by walking around the floor with her. As I did this, I could see before my own eyes that her health was 12 improving and able to walk more steadily. On her last day in hospital, just before her niece’s 13 ,she wrote me one last note, “I couldn’t have done this 14 you; I love you.” After kissing goodbye, I had a strong sense of achievement. I realized that moments like this were 15 I woke up early for 16 in the hospital and spent long hours with her. I truly felt, and her 17 confirmed, that I was an 18 part of this woman’s recovery. My experience with this patient shows me that this career allows me to touch the 19 of people in ways that people in other 20 will never get to experience.
