The patients are the biggest reason I love coming to work. Their gratitude and vulnerability — even in one of the hardest seasons of their lives — never fails to inspire me.
Getting to share the moments where they laugh, connect, and feel like themselves is something I'll never take for granted. I leave every day better than I arrived, thanks to them.
