I had the absolute pleasure of being Karen's nurse for over the past few years.I cared for her deeply.I've been a nurse for 25 years and she is the one and only patient I gave balloons for her birthday, memorized her phone number and could recite her date of birth by heart.She is also the only patient I've ever seen on my own time when she was discharged from home care because she meant that much to me..During the past 2 years I was able to meet her brother, her daughter Lisa, her 2 beautiful Granddaughters and her husband Richard. I even got to spend some time with her sister Mary while she was recovering from her hospital stay.What a loving family Karen had! On Christmas day I received a message from her daughter and I had an uneasy feeling that something was wrong. Since I lived so close I thought I would drive by her house to make sure she was okay. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw an ambulance and fire truck at her house. Lisa let me in and there was my favorite patient Karen being taken to the hospital by EMS.My 8 y/o granddaughter was with me and was crying and saying how unfare it was that she had to go to the hospital on Christmas evening.I turned around because I was unsure if I would ever see her again and I wanted to run up to the ambulance and give her a hug but she was already inside. If I had known for sure she wouldn't be coming home again I would have jumped up inside that ambulance and given her a hug and kiss. Now I will have to blow her a kiss from here to heaven because I know for a fact that heaven is where she is.I'm thankful she will never struggle for a breath of air and never feel pain again. I can honestly say I love you Karen and until the day we meet again I will hold a special place in my heart for you! Love, your nurse and friend Karen Sorgeloos

Celebrating a life well lived. We will cherish the memories forever.
