It had been a tough day and I was in much pain. The head doctor of the department noticed. I was laying on a gurney- He took a box of tissues, knelt in front of me, sympathized with me in my pain and told me how sorry he was. I in turn was able to briefly testify to Him of God\u2019s grace to me and my family in this time and to thank him for His goodness as well as the kindness of the Mayo to look at me. It was a moment I\u2019ll never forget.<\/p>\n<p>Love you all and look forward to being restored back to you.
