We are so thankful for the countless doctors, nurses and child life specialists who work so closely with our kids to give them the best care possible in their most vulnerable time. This special NEGU nurse nomination comes from Jade, for her NEGU nurse Stephanie! (shared by Jade’s mommy)

Nurse Stephanie“Stephanie was Jade’s very first nurse at Phoenix Children’s Hospital (PCH) and we liked her right away. She has always fought for us when we need things taken care of.  She has created a friendship with Jade that made her feel comfortable and even happy in instances where she was miserable. Stephanie has always been a very pleasant and intelligent nurse and we have been thankful for the opportunity to know her. She has become one of our family members, always there to support Jade and our family by wearing Jade’s bracelets, pins, stickers, and t-shirts. She is a very big part of Team Jade and a great advocate for us against leukemia.

I wish there were more nurses like Stephanie, so that other children and their families can know the love and support that we do. 

Steph, we have repeatedly told you that you are one of our favorites, and its the truth. You have made bad days brighter, horrible days better and good days more fun just by being you. PCH is lucky to have you on their team helping the kids and their families who unfortunately have to call that place home from time to time. You have been such a blessing to our family and your love and support will never be forgotten and always cherished. we love you”- Jade and Family
