Oncology nurse Kristy Hill loved the way Pedro Rivera, a phlebotomist at her hospital, took time to make her patients feel better. When she found out that he needed a kidney transplant, she wanted to be tested.
“I saw Pedro as someone who was a blessing to the people around him,” she said. “I want to help him live a longer, happier life.”
Pedro was pretty surprised.
“I thought she was crazy,” Rivera recalled. “But I could tell by her face she was very serious.”
Their transplant took place earlier this week. Congrats to both!
