Claire always went above and beyond her nursing job. When I was at the bottom, depressed and giving up on life, she would help me to see my situation a little differently. She listened to my stories about my family. She brought me out of my shell. I learned to live with my condition. More importantly, she taught me to laugh again. We love the same authors. So she and others brought me books. I love to color in stress-relieving coloring books. Claire brought me a new coloring book, colored pencils, and a sharpener. Anything to keep me from being bored and lonely.

Thank you, Claire, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
