A Video of an ‘Angel’ Nurse Sings for Dying Patient

OCTOBER 27, 2017 8:43 AM
But before that, Neufelder wanted to share a few more minutes — and the calming power of music — with her old friend.
.

“There was almost a sense of peace knowing that it was her favorite song and she did tell me it’s the song she wants played at her funeral,” Neufelder told NewsChannel 5. “She didn’t feel like a patient at that time. I wanted her to know that she was loved even if her family wasn’t able to be there.”
A friend of Smith’s captured the touching moment, which quickly went viral after it was posted to Facebook by Megan Smith, Margaret’s daughter.
Megan Smith wrote that, to her mother, Neufelder is an “angel.”
“This nurse sat with my mom for hours while the medicine from too much Anesthesia and sang a very special song to my sweet mother to comfort her,” Smith detailed on her post. “You never left her side by choice!! Words cannot describe the appreciation and love we feel for nurse Olivia who mom calls her angel!”
In the video, Neufelder can be seen tenderly caressing Smith’s hand and often wiping away tears. Smith, in turn, lies with her arms crossed, closing her eyes and occasionally looking up at the singing nurse.
Around 3.5 million people have watched that video, plus another 270,000 people who saw a different clip of the serene connection between nurse and patient.
Neufelder told Fox17 that she hoped the millions of people who watched the videos learned this: “There’s always hope, there’s always someone.”
“Miss Marg has touched my heart in such an indescribable way,” she wrote on Facebook. “I am so humbled and honored to be a Nurse. My thoughts and prayers are forever with this amazing family.”
