About the Book

In my clinical observations, many times the physicians and nurses were extremely busy and parents were not capable of explaining a medical procedure to their child. In speaking with many critically ill and medically fragile children they wanted to know why they were in the hospital, how can they be cured and will this hurt? In my line of books, I am addressing important issues such as cancer, diabetes, hospice and genetic disabilities. Lastly, these books would give great insight to siblings and other family members in understanding a specitic medical condition and the process involved.

In addition, she stays active clinically as a PerDiem Pediactric Nurse providing in home Healthcare to medically fragile children and young adults specializing in ventilators and tracheostomies.
