Dear Nurse Who Underestimated Me,
So Mom died.
She was my best friend, Thelma to my Louise, and she passed away — transitioned, I’d like to say — to the great beyond aka heaven, three weeks ago.
You might not remember Mom and she might be just another patient to you, but I think this needs to be said. You underestimated me — and her. That, along with many things you did, was a mistake. Yeah, I want to get this off my chest but I’m also hoping other people who are in caregiving roles for people they love can learn something, too.
