Making a Difference
Yeseterday I got an email from a friend.
Hey Becky! I went to Judy Dimond's funeral yesterday (I would guess you weren't there). Anyway I just wanted to tell you how much their family talked about the amazing nurses at chemo that kept her going and how much she loved them and how kind they all were to her. They said they kept her hanging on much longer than she probably would've because of their kindness and friendship. Here's the email I already told you about...
Friend,
Today at my chemo, my favorite nurse told me that this is her last week working here. She's been at UVRMC working in the ER room part time, and is now going full time. Her name is Becky Beard! She said that you two used to work there together. Small world. She told Dave and me the story of you guys on slow nights playing the washing machine game on the elevator and the Zamboni game! How hilarious! I could see you two together! I'm going to miss Becky soooo much. She has always cheered me up when I come.
Love you,
Judy
Anyway, just in case you weren't aware, just wanted you to know what a difference you made... That's really neat to be able to have such a positive influence on someone's life! Hope you're doing well!

It's amazing to know what a difference the small things you do for people, may make the world so much better for that peron. It makes me want to be an even better person, and find ways to reach out and help others even more!
