    This video truly touched me to tears. I understand the pain, and sadness when going through something light this. I appreciate teams like this. My husband and I had a very similar situation at MedStar Washington Hospital Center. God Blessed us with loving, capable and kind people. ❤ God Bless you all, in Jesus Name. ❤
  • I worked pediatric physical therapy. I could not take it. I would go home and cried everyday. I choose geriatrics and did it for 35 years. I'm retired now
  • Our little boy is a patient with pediatric palliative care at Helen Devos Children's Hospital in Grand Rapids Michigan. I don't know what I would ever do without them. Wonderful group of people that care!!

    This comment could be from my son who passed away Aug. 9, 2013 not sure how to get my name on here, but he had kidney failure and just be careful, if you put your sick child in the hospital the nurses do not come in time to help because there are like 7 patients for 1 aide, I made sure I was there to help as much as possible.
