Elena's Heart for Healing

by Kelly Fairbanks NP-C

When Elena accompanies her beloved Abuelo to his wound-care appointments, she learns how nurses, surgeons, and hyperbaric oxygen technicians work together to help his leg heal. Through dressing changes, debridement, hyperbaric oxygen treatments, surgery, and recovery at home, Elena stays close by Abuelo's side - holding his hand, calming his worries, and cheering him on. As she watches the medical team care for Abuelo with patience and compassion, Elena begins to imagine a future of her own: becoming a nurse and helping others feel safe, understood, and hopeful.
