She added, "Hospital mein bhi staff, nurses, alag-alag jagahon se aake bol rahe the, 'Ma'am, aap theek ho jaoge.' Dusre patients ke relatives bhi bol rahe the, 'Hum aapke liye pray kar rahe the.' Unke apne bachhe, father hain, lekin phir bhi woh mere liye dua kar rahe the. (The nurses were also extremely kind and positive. Several others, including family members of other patients, were very kind and nice to me. I am extremely thankful to you all for keeping me in your prayers and thoughts.)
