Sharon from William Harvey Hospital is a NICU Superhero!
09 June 2023
Shelby has nominated the lovely Sharon from William Harvey Hospital for our NICU Superhero Award!
Shelby's son, Archie, spent 82 days in the neonatal unit, and Sharon made this time so much easier.
"Sharon always made us feel welcome and looked after Archie so well.
Our time on the unit was made easier by her bubbly personality.
Leaving Archie every day broke our heart, but we knew he was in the best care.
We had a great bond with Sharon and she kept our spirits high (even on the bad days).
Sharon always made an effort to put him in our favourite outfits and gave him lots of cuddles.
She made us feel like family and supported us through our journey.
Sharon's one in a million. Archie loved her and I can't thank her enough!"
Congratulations, Sharon!
The way you care for families as a whole makes a huge difference during a difficult time.
Your rosette, certificate and goodies are on the way to you!
