Just got an email from the nurse who cared for me in the intensive care unit after my second surgery six weeks ago. It made my day!
“Dear Ignaty,
Sorry it’s taken me this long, but I wanted to properly say a massive thank you for your card. And the voucher was extremely generous, you didn’t really have to.
Your kind words do mean the world to me. All the long hours, the night shifts and the lack of a normal social life (probably the biggest complaints, if you care to ask any Intensive Care Nurse) become insignificant when you find out you make such a difficult time a little more bearable, when you make someone feel better. So I’m so happy to know I did that for you.”
Our thank-you’s do matter!!
