We both met at work during Chads first year of residency. It was the summer of 2019 at Weiss Hospital, I was 6 months into my nursing career. New residents were about to start at Weiss Hospital. It was 8am, I was standing by a computer about to pass medications to my first patient when Chad walks over to me and says “Hi I’m Chad! I’m one of the new residents here! I just thought I’d say hello and introduce myself” to be honest I was rather taken back. Chad was a loud individual. He also appeared very tan and had striking bright green eyes. I learned later on he had just returned from a trip in Columbia. As months passed we would hangout in the same circle of friends through work. A friend of mine had mentioned that Chad had a crush on me but I had told myself I wouldn’t date a coworker. Chad was always so sweet to the patients that him and I cared for together. I remember one day walking by a patients room and just watching him as he sat on the windowsill chatting with this sweet old lady. Chad was in there for over an hour. For many of you, this is not a surprise. I began to fall for these wonderful qualities that I saw in Chad. That December we both attended a holiday party together and toward the end of the night Chad walked me out to my Uber and said “I would love to have you over sometime, I have the best view in the city on my rooftop” I followed up on that invitation and the rest is history.
