Our daughter has been through multiple relapses and had a very difficult time when her protocol required pills. Kristin would always come up with thoughtful and creative ways to help her and encourage her. She would get excited with her when she would successfully get the pills down and always remember the things that she liked or made it easier on her and would have it ready so that our daughter would be less stressed.

There were very specific things that helped our daughter, and Kristin always went out of her way to make sure she was comfortable, supported, and felt safe. Kristin would always las a wonderful advocate for our daughter as well. Whenever we needed help with nausea or pain, Kristin would share our concerns with our care team so that we had one less thing to worry about. We don’t know what we would have done without the care and compassion Kristin gave to not only our daughter but to us as her parents as well as her little brother.

Kristin has been our nurse many times throughout this almost 5-year journey, and we have so much gratitude and love for her. She truly exemplifies the hope, love, and compassion that St. Jude is known for. Kristin is such a blessing to us and to St. Jude and we are forever grateful for her kindness, compassion, and for all she does for not only our daughter but all of the children in her care.
