When Amanda Scarpinati was 3 months old, she fell off the sofa onto a steam vaporizer, causing serious burns to her skin. As she grew up, she had to go through multiple reconstructive surgeries.
She was taken to Albany Medical Center, where a kind nurse named Sue Berger cared for her. Berger held the bandaged baby in her arms, comforting her during the painful time. This happened in 1977.
After Scarpinati left the hospital, all she had were photos of herself in Nurse Berger’s arms. She was determined to find the caring nurse and thank her for her kindness.
As she grew up, Scarpinati was bullied because of her burns, which made the nurse’s compassion even more meaningful to her. She shared a post about it on Facebook, and soon the nurse was found.
In the clip below, Scarpinati and Berger reunite at the hospital where they first met. It’s a heartwarming moment as they share their feelings with each other. Don’t miss watching it!
Please share this amazing reunion with everyone on Facebook!
