This week Tina is joined by fellow podcaster and friend, Erica Bailey from the University of Portland School of Nursing. Tina and Erica tell the story of Thomas Elmore, Jr. On September 22, 2016, Thomas Elmore Jr. dialed 911 and told the operator that his girlfriend of several years Tamara Naish was dead on the bathroom floor. When investigators arrived, he told them how his beloved girlfriend had killed herself 24 hours earlier. They closed the show with a heartbreaking story that honors the memory of a courageous nurse who died helping the victim of a car accident.
