An elderly woman was living her final hours, and beside her was only a young nurse when she noticed something unexpected 😨🤔 The elderly woman lay in a hospital bed, barely breathing. In the past weeks, her condition had worsened day by day, and hope was almost gone. The doctors said plainly — the countdown was no longer in days but in hours. She could no longer eat, barely responded to her surroundings, only occasionally opened her eyes and slowly shifted her gaze around the room. No family members came — they simply were not there. She was completely alone. The only person who visited her every day was a young nurse. She herself didn’t know why she had grown attached to this woman — maybe because she reminded her of her own grandmother, or simply because she felt pity. Every day, the nurse tried to cheer the patient up, changed the bedding, brought water, and sometimes read aloud short newspaper clippings. That evening, the patient was breathing so heavily that the nurse immediately knew: the end was near. She sat beside her, took the woman’s dry, cold hand in her palms, and quietly said: — Don’t be afraid, I will stay with you until the very end. The elderly woman stirred slightly, as if trying to say something, but the words failed her. The nurse couldn’t hold back any longer, leaned over, and hugged her tightly. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she hurried to hold them back — she didn’t want to show weakness. Rising, the nurse cast one last look at the machines, then at the table by the bed, and was about to leave the room when something very unexpected caught her attention... 😨😢 Continued in the first comment 👇👇
