OPHELIA DAISY LYNCH : bio , facts , connections !!
» greetings, bighorns ! walking around campus, sporting their small medical pouch we’ve spotted OPHELIA DAISY LYNCH, a twenty seven years old who contributes to our thriving community as a NURSE AND A TEACHER. according to our intel, they’ve been around the sanctuary for seven years and what we know about them, aside from the fact that they don’t agree with the decision to close the gates, is that she's always wearing combat boots and practical attire that were a gift from a fellow survivor she once helped during a critical medical emergency; maintains a positive and hopeful demeanor, using humor as a coping mechanism to lighten the mood during grim situations and has a discreet tattoo on her wrist, depicting a caduceus intertwined with an olive branch, symbolizing her commitment to both healing and peace doesn’t that make them fantastic ? we think it does, and that’s why we appreciate them so much, grateful for what they give to our community.
