In the caption of the photo, she recounted how this happened.
"In triage the other day, I heard a knock on the window...this was what I saw-this man knew he couldn't come in but wanted to show some gratitude," she began.
"...he had tears pouring down his face-I peeked out the door and asked him how his wife was-he said, 'great, she is going home today, you are all amazing."
"I don't know him, I don't know his wife, but through the last 13 years as a nurse, I realized, this is why we do it- times are tough, but we make a difference."
In response, folks want to know what they can do to make sure their nurses know they are appreciated.
The news every day points to more death and destruction on the horizon, with hospitals rapidly running out of equipment.
That's why the glimmers of hope, as sparing and as few as they may be, are even more important.
Make no mistake-no matter how dark it gets, no matter how bleak; hope still reigns.
