When Alaina Tuttle was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer at age 4, she found comfort in several nurses, one of whom went “above and beyond” in caring for her, carrying her to the operating room, singing to her and bonding with her family.

Around 20 years later, Tuttle and nurse Amanda Donnelly were reunited at Mercy Health – Springfield when Donnelly joined the obstetrics team in June as the lead certified registered nurse anesthetist, where Tuttle was working as a registered nurse.
