Without her, I more than likely would have left when I desperately needed to stay!
I have an abnormal phobia of hospital stays plus being on steroids my anxiety gets extremely bad! I have a hard time staying. I don't want to take narcotics so it gets bad. Julie came in, would help by talking, breathing with me, gave suggestions to relax and talked me through it, and breathed with me through it. I'd felt bad for having to keep pushing the call light and apologized. She told me not to hesitate and not once got short with me or acted agitated (she had to come a lot). I'd like to thank her so much! Because without her, I more than likely would have left when I desperately needed to stay! P.S. Julie, the music did help!!
