If any quote can sum up the role that nurses play during the cancer experience, it’s this one from Maya Angelou: “People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Throughout the month, CSC has been paid tribute to nurses in honor of Oncology Nursing Month. There are many special relationships with nurses throughout our Affiliate Network. One of these relationships is between our Affiliate, Gilda’s Club Chicago and Patrice A. Stephens, MSN, APN, ACON-BC. Read her story, submitted by Gilda’s Club Chicago below.
