“The devil’s in the details,” they say, and sometimes it takes a fresh perspective to see the beauty we overlook in ourselves. Nurse Brandalyn Mae Porter learned this during a heartwarming moment with an elderly resident.
While painting the resident’s nails, Brandalyn suggested a fun color, but the woman chose clear polish, saying her hands were “ugly.” Brandalyn gently responded, “Your hands tell the story of love, care, and adventure. They’ve held and touched more than most can imagine.” Touched by her words, the woman chose pink instead.
