My nurse after my surgery was the most patient and kind nurse! As a bariatric surgery patient, the nurse was so understanding, as her family member underwent the same procedure as me. It put me at ease that she had firsthand experience. She told me that bariatric patients are her favorite because she knows that there is a significant positive change about to happen. The stories she shared with me were so positive and heartfelt. In addition to giving me great care, she allowed my children to “help her” with my vitals. They were so excited, and it eased the burden of my young children seeing me in a hospital bed.
