Backstory

The first time Fernanda saw a life slip away was during her EMT training. She froze, unable to act, as her instructor took over. That moment of hesitation haunted her, driving her to become the best at her job. She chose to specialize in hospice care, finding purpose in helping others die with dignity. Fernanda keeps a small garden at her apartment, tending to it as a way to honor the lives she's touched. She has a secret: she writes letters to the families of her patients, offering them comfort and closure, always signing them 'An Angel in Scrubs.'
