Her attention was enough to make me not think about dying.
I was admitted in January with colitis (the worst one). Upon CAT scan, I found out that I have an aneurysm in my aorta, plus plaque covered a tear in my aorta wall. I was also diagnosed with severe bradycardia. Needless to say, I was in pretty bad shape. This individual was very attentive the entire four days I was there. She made me feel at ease as I was told that if the colitis reached my bowel, it would kill me! Her attention was enough to make me not think about dying. She is very organized, more so than the other nurses. She should be in charge of that UNIT. I love St Clair because of this nurse.
