I had a reaction to chemotherapy and had to have my next chemo treatments in the hospital. My vision of what this would be like was not good; kind of like being a prisoner sent to solitary confinement. Well, I was certainly wrong and largely due to nurse Amanda Carlson being so wonderful. She instantly put me at ease. She had all the medical stuff covered. She listened to what I was saying and from one treatment to the next remembered, followed through and made things better each time. Amanda was right there when I needed her, as well as gave me quiet time to rest when needed. She helped me pass the time and the time went quickly.
I really enjoyed the staff on the unit and appreciate all they did for me; especially Amanda. Everyone could not have done one thing better. I am so grateful to them all, especially Amanda who was in charge of me and became my pal. Thank you, Amanda!
