Diana is the team lead in the cancer lab. She was my father's advocate with his doctor to help receive a port after multiple IV and chemo had done damage to his veins. She took the time to explain how they worked and to educate him and me so that we would not be scared when he went to get one. She was the first one to use his port and she cried tears of happiness when it worked and he was so excited that he didn't have to be stuck more than once. I have seen her run through that lab answering everyone's questions, helping wherever she is needed and always sharing a smile. All I can ever say is, "thank you". I hope she knows how much she means to so many.
