I never imagined I would be diagnosed with Stage 4 NSCLC. Neither did I expect the lovely and caring Nurse Emily to be my DAISY at the other end of what can be a scary time. She has never failed to address all my fears, issues, and questions in a manner as if she were a lifelong friend rather than simply a medical professional. No matter how sensitive or personal the concern, she always mixes her innate compassion into her advice and response. She has never failed to respond promptly, no matter how late in the day I message. This permits me to make decisions I would otherwise be hesitant to make. As long as we have flowers like Emily blooming in our oncology garden, more DAISIES will sprout and blossom by her example. I'm not sure even the beauty of the flower does her justice. Despite working from the shadows of the portal, she has helped me see the beauty of the fight and know we're not alone on the journey. Please give my DAISY Nurse the recognition she so richly deserves!
