Her reply? Excuse me?
It didn t sound like the sort of work she was accustomed to and figured she had been saddled with a dreadful chore. The experience turned out to be something quite different than she imagined. I went into this conference room, and Roger shows up, and he s just his jolly self, and he s got this food, Carrubba recalled. Roger s telling jokes, and one by one people are getting food.
As they picked up their food, Carrubba recalled, they thanked Reynolds profusely and made comments like, You have no idea, we haven t eaten for two days! By the end of the first hour, I thought, My God, this is such a meaningful thing, Carrubba said. It was so moving to hear these people tell me, My child is dying, or My little girl was in a terrible accident, she s on life-support. One story after another. They don t want to leave the hospital, and they don t really want to leave the bedside.
