When we say our job is a blessing, we truly mean it. However, sometimes it also comes with heartache. 2 years ago I lost a patient who just truly made a lasting impact on my heart. She lived an hour away and we started off with telehealth services. I quickly fell in love with her and her Momma and a friendship was formed. I tried to see them in person as much as I could. I remember her kicking a ball for the first time at her second birthday party and feeling so proud. Her smile was contagious, her sass was unmatched, and her fight was undeniable. Her 3 years on this earth were not enough, but she has made a forever impact on me. I love and miss you Hayley Jade!
