Josette is a wonderful person, for starters. Josette was my nighttime nurse for my first baby. A baby that came into this world sleeping. Unfortunately, I found out at 16 weeks pregnant that I had lost my little boy. He was born around 5 a.m. Josette was the nurse assigned to me that night. When I was already experiencing such a traumatic event, this nurse was experiencing her first unalive birth with me. She took good care of me throughout the night with a smile on her face.

Josette was there, reassuring me every step of the way. Fast forward. I was currently 37 weeks and a few days, with a pregnancy that had multiple scares, with my miracle baby girl. I had to be admitted for an early induction due to health issues. Josette was the nurse on duty. It was such a blessing to see a familiar face! My little girl was supposed to make her entrance into the world. However, she had other plans. I was not progressing enough, and after 24 hours of labor, I had to have a C-section. Josette is a wonderful human being, and made me feel so secure in 2 completely different situations, and never once missed a beat in reassuring me everything was going to be okay.

Josette has made a difference in my life, and I know she will continue to make a better difference in the lives of others. She should be awarded for her hard work, kind words, and dedication not only to her job, but most importantly to her patients.
