I choose Lauren because she is smart, pretty, and funny. She is truly an inspiration because when you don't feel good at all she is always there and makes sure you feel a whole lot better. When you've had a bad day she is always there to talk and give you a big ole' hug and she tells me stories. We have some things in common that is why I love her a whole lot.

During my chemo treatment journey, she helped me understand that not fighting was not an option. She always gave me the courage to smile and to always give 100% in trying. She lent me a shoulder to cry on when my relapse came on my 17th birthday. She is not just a nurse but a family member.

Always helping us by explaining how to clean the port. She is always a helping hand when we may need her. She is simply amazing. She's considered part of the family. It's always nice seeing her with our daughter since the very beginning she's been so helpful.
