When my husband’s routine hip surgery spiraled into a nightmare, I felt lost in a maze of medical jargon and rotating doctors. It took a stranger—a hospital rabbi—to quietly say, “You can request a different hospital.” That simple advice gave me the courage to demand a transfer, leading to the team that saved his leg and his life. It’s wild how one compassionate voice can cut through the chaos and empower you to speak up, even when you feel powerless. Has anyone else found their voice in a crisis, or had a stranger’s kindness change everything? #Health #BodyHealth #PatientAdvocacy
