Chocolates for the nurses!

When I had back surgery, my mom went to our local Fannie May candy store and bought a big box of chocolates for the staff at the hospital to enjoy each time they came into my room.

They were all so shocked, and I even had to talk some of them into taking one because they just couldn’t believe anyone would think of them like that (they thought I was trying to give them my personal chocolate!). They each visited me with smiles on their faces and warmth in their voices, and several of them stayed and visited with me and chatted for as long as they possibly could.

After that, I started taking chocolates with me when I would visit friends or family in the hospital. I’ve even taken home baked goods, too!! – Shannon 🙂
