I came to the ER and was hospitalized. I was dehydrated and they found a blood clot in my lung and adrenal insufficiency. They worked with Hillman Cancer Center as I'm a cancer patient and my meds cause adrenal insufficiency. I was transferred to the Cardiovascular ICU because of my blood clot. Conor Myers, RN was my nurse the next day and I was very stressed and could not sleep. He helped me understand all that was happening as I had many tests. He worked with the hospitalist. He looked information up on adrenal insufficiency and explained things in a way so easy to understand and spent time easing my stress. He never made me feel I monopolized his time with all my questions. He seemed genuinely concerned with not only my health but my well-being. He was a breath of fresh air at what seemed to me such a difficult and stressful time. He was not my nurse the following day but stopped in to see if I was OK, to assure me I was in good hands with the nurse assigned to me that day. Conor is a DAISY Nurse for his skillful techniques, his compassion, concern, and willingness to go above and beyond his normal nursing duties.
