This nomination was written by a husband of a patient who had just given birth.

...Dorothy was always checking on us, making sure we had everything we needed and that we were comfortable. She would laugh at my cheesy jokes and would joke back to make my wife feel better even when she wasn't my wife's nurse. She always made sure she had her feet propped up.

She told us different cases of breast feeding stories to help my wife to keep trying.

We didn't have her as a nurse our last night and she came by to say goodbye. That made my wife's night a whole lot better because it was going rough and the love from Dorothy was felt by us.

Dorothy always smiled, she had a motherly feel to her and you need that when you give birth. My wife needed that. Dorothy was that figure you can ask questions to and not feel dumb. She always answered my wife's questions with kindness and compassion. Words cannot express how much Dorothy meant to us. Thank you Dorothy.
