2021 has been a difficult year for so many. At the same time there are so many who have served heroically in their respective work places.
Below is a list of professionals we wish to thank. Each item reflects an actual event we have witnessed and for which we express our gratitude.
- To the fast-food staff member who saved the favorite well-worn toy “Buddy” until the family returned to search for it…
- To the chief of surgery who held the patient’s hand and talked soothingly as the general anesthetic was applied before an emergency surgery…
- To the attorney who in a free consultation said, “Tell me your greatest fears in this situation and I’ll tell you what the law says,” …
- To the chaplain who stayed at the patient’s bed side through the night when family members were too tired to do so…
- To the physical therapist who skillfully applied ultrasound and physical exercises to restore a limb that had been allowed to atrophy…
- To the teacher who phoned a family to discuss changes in behavior…
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!
