| 2009-06-16 | anita | 10 | 10 | 8 | 10 | Yes | My question was dealth with end-of-life issues for a family member. The gentle compassion Nurse Margot used made the bad news readable. Nurse Margot was pointed and kind, telling me what I needed to know for the situation. Of course, I really wanted a different answer; but she provided what I needed, not what I wanted. |

| 2008-02-25 | Jane | 8 | 10 | 8 | 10 | No | Thank you for responding. I had hoped this would be a private response (thought I had indicated that in my original question) but it appears to have been posted on the website after all ... anyway, we shall look for a specialist and hopefully can find some answers for this poor man. It's heartbreaking to see this happening and if there is ANY chance it can be reversed, we think we owe it to him to find out what can be done. Thank you for your response. Can you suggest someone in this area, though? |
