Losing Isabelle is truely a blow to the staff here @ the Lankenau infusion center. Isabelle was a kind hearted and oh so fun loving soul! She was very young at heart and had a very unassuming nature. During the many years in which we had the joy of treating her, never did she ever say an unkind word or become inpatient when things weren't going too smoothly, even when she felt her worst. She treated our nurses like the treasured friends that we became. She was one special person who brought a bit of lightheartedness and cheer to the room when she came. We will absolutely miss her here and we are grateful that we had the opportunity to know her.
