Lying here in my hospital bed I have not been able to stop thinking about your bravery and all that you have done for me. You risked your life to save mine, you were my guardian angel. You gave me hope and something to live for when I needed it most and for that I will be forever grateful. Without your help, bravery and compassion I don't think that I would be alive today. I cannot thank you enough; there are no words for this.…
First of all I would like to thank you for a wonderful year; the year was easier thanks to you. Thanks to your great help, I realized that it's possible to do so much with the help of a giving and loving hand. Thanks to you I realized that giving is the highest virtue, if we could give and help others we can reach unlimited places. Receiving this help and the insight it provided me is a virtue and it doesn't end here, sending the message to others will create an endless magic. I thank you very much for making this year easier, may we get to be on the receiving side as well.…

Thank you for coming and helping us today on Vascular Unit. Our unit was hectic with high acuity and you jumped right into help. Also, I wanted to send you a personal thank you for helping me to remove IJ line of the patient in 510 who only requested Dr. Wesley to remove it; we had been trying so hard for more than a week but the patient never even let us touch it. The patient said this: " Frances has been very thorough with me. She explains everything she is doing, very friendly and professional"…
I would like to thank everyone that has shown their support, encouragement, sympathy, love, and prayers towards the sudden passing of my beloved grandpa from last week. Please continue to keep us in your prayers as my family goes through this new season of life. This year's Memorial Day definitely attached a different meaning to it. My grandpa was given Military Honors at the cemetery as he served in the Army in between the Korean and Vietnam War. It brought great pride, joy, and honor for him to be able to served. Thank you for those who had served and are currently serving. It is because of you that we have our freedom and liberty.…

I hope this letter finds you doing well and enjoying your holiday season with your family. With the mix of school, family travel, family complications and, off-season training, it has taken me a bit longer than I had anticipated before I was able to write you. But, I wanted to write you and say thank you.…
To Jim, who lost his fight with cancer last month. I know that you said you would be at my pinning ceremony, but I feel your spirit here.…
Dissecting a heart and lung was a neat experience. Holding such a large organ was incredible because I could clearly see the different parts of the heart. The heart my group received was in good condition. It was entertaining to pull out the long strands of blood and watch the heart drain. Playing with the heart was helpful. It made it easier to remember the pathway of blood and separate the right from the left. Holding onto the chordae tendineae was my favorite part. I was speechless at their strength. The most difficult part of the dissection was the smell. I love eating any type of meat so, the familiar smell made me feel…
I would like to thank you all for being here today, it means a lot to me, my mother and my brother Biff to see all of your faces. It has been a very hard time for us and I am happy to see all the lives my father has touched, and I am glad to see that all of you have come for him. He would also be happy to see all of you here since he always wanted to be well liked. I wish that I had a lot more time with my father. My father might have had some flaws but he never meant to hurt people he always wanted to do good for people. He was my role model life because he never gave up in what he believed in and that is exactly what I am going to try to do. He had many dreams but was never able to achieve them making him feel like he was a failure. I am…
In my opinion, recovery signifies to live and to be alive. In short, it is the key component that I need to have in my life to ensure that I am alive in the flesh, as well as alive in the mind. In other words, recovery is the bridge that connects the gap between living a mediocre life and living a life of complete fulfillment. It allows me to strive to be the best human being that I can possibly be while I exist on planet earth. For example, I know from my personal experience that if I did not have any aspect of recovery in my life, I would not have the opportunity to be able to help other addicts and alcoholics similar to myself. Notably, through recovery, I am given the chance to thrive in life, and not just survive. It is a vital aspect…
* I would also like to recognize the rest of my family. Thank you for always supporting us in anything we do and never missing a moment that is important me. You are always there to watch no matter what we are doing.…
My palms itched as a trickle of sweat dripped down my lower back. My stomach churned from the rich coffee that I drank that morning. I could feel the oxygenated blood rushing to the surface of my skin. With a beet red face and with muscles aching, I lifted the weights higher and higher. “Body Pump” is a specially designed class for weight lifting and cardio workout. I still remember the first time in the class; I picked up the smallest weights of two and a half pounds. I was sore with screaming muscles for the next three days. The feeling afterward was energizing as sensations were flowing to all the muscles of my body. I returned to the class and advanced from the smallest weights to the medium sized ones. As I travel through the path…
When I was young, some absurd event made me unable to play sports for nearly two months. One time, I landed awkwardly, which lead to a sprained ankle. Doctors told me I got my ligament torn so that I will be unable to walk for two months- one month with a cast and one month of recovery. The worst thing about that is that I had an important soccer tournament coming after two months. I needed to be 100% fit to that tournament, or else I was going to get cut off the list. One month felt like one decade. With a cast and crutches, it felt like hell. After one month, I needed to wait another month for recovery. I was so desperate to play, so I went to many therapies, many recovery trainings, many acupuncture sessions, and etc. It was a hard process,…
