Showing My Appreciation

Recently, my fear and pain have been placed at ease due to the job the university of Maryland's hospital staff,specifically the CCU unit, has done on my mom's behalf. About one week ago, my 82 year old mom had a procedure done to remove a gall stone. While it was not an operation procedure, it still had effects on her old frame.For instance,as a result of the procedure, she had kidney complications,problems breathing and high blood pressure:things that could very well have been derived from old age.Nevertheless, the hospital staff worked in unison to remedy her health problems.Further, they have been very informative to me in my continuous efforts to get her health updates.
To show my appreciation for the hospital staff's work,I decided to write this article.My mom is my best friend and I had routinely talked to her on a daily basis for the last 15 years.It is very hard on me being 500 miles away and not being able to be present at her bedside.Thanks to Jen and Ruff and the rest of the hospital staff as well as the doctors,who all took my place in being there and showed a genuine care.This should come as no surprise to me, after all, I was born in this very same hospital some 43 years ago.
For what it is worth, thanks and I appreciate the care shown towards my ailing mom and me. This is my only way to show my gratitude and many thanks.
