From the moment she walked in, our lives were profoundly changed for the better.
How do you describe someone who provided a light in what was an extremely dark tunnel we were wandering in?

My wife had experienced a second heart attack, which resulted in some complications. Our local hospital was not confident that they could perform all the repairs she would need. That's when Christina entered our lives.

From the moment she walked in, our lives were profoundly changed for the better. Her compassion and care, coupled with the most amazing personality, instantly connected with my wife and allowed her to understand she was not only ok, but going to be healed completely.

They were instantly bonded, and even when we were transferred to another room post-surgery, she sought my wife out and made sure she had everything we would need. She did all of this while caring for the patients in her ward.

I believe we were in the presence of an angel, and will be forever blessed with her care and connection with my wife.
