So I've worked at Allina and at Abbott Northwestern for 33 years. I'm a RN in the Labor Delivery Department of the Mother Baby Center at Abbott Northwestern.
I still tear up, especially when a daddy cries. I'm bringing new little people into the world. I'm just happy to come here and know that I'm helping people like me. I try to give them time because I don't want them to feel rushed. I know when they have speech difficulties, I can see the wheels turning and see them trying to mouth the words. My patients that I work with, I understand what they're going through. I'm an RN here at the transitional rehab program in Golden Valley. He's like, what if you came and worked here? I'm like, I never even thought of that. And then I started meeting with John the chaplain. So I was trying to decide what I wanted to do after this because I knew I had to go back to work. And I knew what I wanted to write, I couldn't make my hand write it. I remember I was doing my speech therapy homework. And then after the surgeries, I did outpatient therapy at the Courage Kenny in Cambridge. And then that's when they found a brain tumor, a central neurocytoma. And I started feeling symptoms like daily headaches and blurry vision. My patients that I work with, I know what they're going through because I experienced it myself. And I feel like it just has helped me be a better nurse. I was a nurse for five years before I had my brain tumor. But they also care so well for each other. I think that's a really unique and maybe a special thing about working in health care is you're working with people who are compassionate. And they were able to listen and support me and push me when I needed a little push. Coming back, they cared for me as I cared for patients. But my work family really stepped up and were a great support system for me, not only during that time, but my daughter did pass away. We went through 14 months of everything that goes with cancer. So that was a really tough period of time. My daughter, Malia, who was eight years old at the time was diagnosed with cancer.
And I was really blessed to be working here at time in my life where we had something pretty significant happen. But we work in these smaller communities. And then I am also supporting the staff that work in the clinic all the time. I get to support new staff when they start at the clinic, make sure they're getting everything they need. I actually don't think this role exists in a lot of other clinic settings. And I have a really unique role within a Allina.
