“Dear PoPville,
I am reaching out to see if you would be able to help me find a mom I met at Children’s National’s Emergency Department last weekend (12/3, around 5pm.) I came in to the ED with my 17m old, who was very very sick- she had lost the ability to use her left arm and leg, and we weren’t sure why. This mom was there with her daughter who had a hurt arm, and she literally became my daughter’s guardian angel that day.
She let me cut in line at the ED, helped me when my child threw up all over me, and watched my items when I went to clean ourselves up. Due to her help, my daughter was fast tracked through the ED, which was amazing because she ended up diagnosed with a blood clot in her brain and needed immediate treatment.
I really would like to find this woman who helped me, and let her know that my daughter is now healthy, and that I’m just so grateful for the compassion she showed.”
If this was you please email me at [email protected] so I can connect you with OP.
