I love what you wrote. I too was ministered by a Black nurse. When I was diagnosed with cervical cancer, I was scared. After the doctor left the room and I started to dress, I started to cry. I tried to hold it in, but my tears and sobs became louder. The nurse came in and assured me that I was in good hands. I will lose my hair, but it will come in more beautiful than before and I will be whole again. Those words stayed with me and strengthened me on this journey. She has since left the practice, but I will always remember her and keep her in my prayers.
