"This is the best, most positive, uplifting, encouraging, caretaking & caregiving  meeting of radiology nurses that we have ever had. I hated to see it end (and  there were many who felt the way I did). You rebooted our spirits and left us free to express our similarities and embrace our differences. Mere words are  poor vehicles for the impact that I saw your ministry make on this group that I know and love so well. Thank you for being a catalyst for our healing, learning, and growing time together.....You have within that tiny person an enormous gift."
