I was so saddened to hear the news of Mrs. Burden. I did not get the honor of knowing her long, but the few weeks I did have with her left a long lasting impression on myself and the rest of the ICU team, here at Jewish. One that we will take with us daily and remember forever. It was evident that she undoubtedly touched numerous people throughout her life and with the inspiration and fight she portrayed, she will continue to touch many lives, even in her death. We will always remember her and will miss her deeply but we are so honored to have met such an amazing individual! I am praying for you all non-stop and wanted to thank you for giving us the opportunity to care for such an amazing woman.
