September 2019 Honoree
michael nelson, BSN, RN, OCN
When I was diagnosed with breast cancer I was scared of the treatments, the needles, the entire journey that I was going to start. Mike made every aspect of receiving the chemo to getting shots needed anxiety-free for me. He came in early to prep my medi port so I could have testing done as he knew how afraid of needles I was. He was a calming strength through a horrible time in my life. He always asked how I was feeling and if there was an issue he would get the immediate answers that we needed. My family and I are forever grateful to Mike and we thank him from the bottom of our hearts for sitting there and explaining to us everything that was happening. He is a wonderful nurse who says his patients are his heroes. To me and my family, he is our hero. Thank you, Mike!
Thank you, Michael, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
