When I first went to Hope Cancer Care I didn't want to show how scared I really was. Not even my sister knew just how scared I was. But after talking to Dr Mehdi he made me feel as tho I mattered. Me being comfortable mattered to him and all his staff. I HATE NEEDLES!! But when Chris first approached me I explained, I'm the biggest baby when it comes to needles, I don't want to see it, just do what you have to do. He reassured me that it's not like getting a shot in your rear end, there's no need to be afraid. It's just a little poke into the port. The skin is very thin and I have spray to freeze the area first. I gotta say it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it still hurt a lil. They always took there time with me and the other patients were very nice. But the staff always had a smile even when they were so busy it didn't matter. The positive energy was off the chart. I looked forward to telling them of my feasco with the portable pump you went home with on Mondays and brought it back on Wednesday. They made going thu the cancer so much easier and help you keep a positive attitude. I am cancer Free so far. I few more months of blood work to make sure. I have all the faith in the world that with the care I got at Hope Cancer Care I will be Totally free of cancer. Thank you All so much I Hope you realize what a difference all of you at H C.C. make in people's lives.You help them Live !
