The old woman’s family had gone home crying, she didn’t have much time left.

Isabelle Jennings, a young caregiver at the Life Care Center in Kansas City, bonded with a patient over music and hymns in particular.

Isabelle routinely assisted her patient Mary Helen Schmelze, and she would go to Mary’s room every Friday and sing her a song.

Mary was having some difficulties a few months after they met. She was suffering from congestive heart failure and was on the verge of passing away.

Isabelle came over to the care center on her day off after hearing the news and sang a hymn for Mary one more time. Mary’s daughter Julie recorded the nurse aide singing beautifully for her friend. Isabelle sang “In The Garden” brilliantly.
