Thankful for Amy
As anyone hearing the news for the first time that you have cancer, it is just such a shock and very hard to grasp all that is going on. But then Amy comes into my life and what a godsend. I know it is an option to accept the nurse navigators; but anyone who does not, does not know what they are missing.
To make a long story short, Amy kept my life organized throughout the year. She made my doctors’ appointments, talked to other nurses at various offices, broke things down into something that I could understand, was always there for my visits and we became friends as well. I truly do not think I could have gotten through the year without her. She somehow made the bad times better and easier.
I am thankful for Amy and the nurse navigator program from the bottom of my heart. I try to recommend the program to anyone I hear of that has been diagnosed. It is a great support program when your family cannot understand what you are going through as well.
Again, Thank You Amy!!!!
