I was hospitalized 5 days ago with no visitors due to COVID-19. All I wanted was my mom by my side. Evelyn made me feel as if she cared just like my own mother, from spoiling me, spending time talking and comforting me about my upcoming surgery. She brought me extra pillows, blankets, and ice. She really made me feel like I had a friend and alleviated the emotional stress caused by this unfortunate situation. She also told me she works at a nursing home outside her nursing job. I can't say enough good things about her. She really was an angel! I will never forget the kindness she shared with me.
