“I would never put being diagnosed with breast cancer on my list of one of life’s wonderful experiences. But dark clouds have silver linings, and as it turns out, the relationships I formed with the caregivers at Catawba Valley Medical Center were wonderful indeed."

“The mammogram at Catawba Valley Imaging Center told the story. I learned I had breast cancer, and for optimal treatment I needed a lumpectomy and radiation therapy. I wasn’t excited about having the radiation, but I didn’t want to take a chance by not having it done. So really, there was no escaping it.
The staff at Catawba Valley Medical Center’s Radiation Oncology Center was not only upbeat and positive, I could also tell they truly cared about me. My best friend sensed that too, which is why on my last day of treatment she sent flowers to the staff, thanking them for the encouragement and warmth they showed me. That brought tears to my eyes, because it shows how even other people knew how much I appreciated what they did for me.” |
