Beth made arrangements with my son to drive me to the VA emergency room that was 160 miles from home.
Beth literally saved my life. Beth diagnosed from my daily routine that I needed immediate attention and care. Beth made arrangements with my son to drive me to the VA emergency room that was 160 miles from home. Please note that Beth worked out the necessary details working all night making the necessary arrangements, and contacting the doctors and the emergency room for me to be admitted to the VA hospital. When I arrived at the emergency room my blood count was 5/2. After ten days in the hospital, I was diagnosed with CLL/SLL. It is not 4 months later and my blood count is 12.8. Beth has always stated she loves her job and loves working at the VA hospital. It is my honor and privilege to nominate beautiful Beth for this DAISY Award.​
