Thank you Kate for being there for me all the times you are assigned to my room. But especially when I had the worse day of my stay. I remember that I had this rash all over my body and I got platelets that morning because of being low. That transfusion was awful because as soon as it was done I got this really bad reaction. I remember I started to cry – my whole body itched so badly and I felt like I was burning up. You saw me and hurried to get whatever it was to make me feel better, you brought towels, a fan, and got Benadryl in my IV to make me feel better. I want to say thank you for going above and beyond to get me out of that misery quickly. Thank you for being a little ray of sunshine with your cheery smile every morning. Thank you!

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