Cancer patients are the best patients.
This I always say.
My first job as a new nurse was in a women's oncology unit. I met some great women. Fighters. Appreciating every single drop of life.
Most of these women, with surprise diagnoses. A diagnosis takes so much away.
One of the things I was always told by these women, in one way or another, was get checked.
Please, get checked.
Often.
I was sent some info to pass on to you LA and OC ladies. As a nurse there is no way I can say no to passing info like this along.
