Years ago I was caring for Beverly in the hospital when I received a call that her husband was in the ER very ill and probably wouldn't make it. I was surprised, as he had been in visiting her hours before and was fine. Although she was very weak in the bed, she jumped up and got into the wheelchair to go to him. We rushed down where Harry lay in the bed in so much pain. The love I saw between this family brought tears to my eyes. He was rushed into surgery and I never knew what happened to him. Several years later I was working and had him as one of my patients. I was so amazed and happy that he had made it, I walked into his room and we both cried. I have never forgotten them, and am so sorry to hear of his passing.
