I was assignedto care for her on the day that she was being discharged.Throughout the day, I formed a close bond with her, andthe nurse asked me to bring Maggie to her car when she was ready to leave. I was a little apprehensive about beingable to help her into the car with the external fixator in placebecause she could not bend her leg at all.
