We would like to thank all the nurses (especially her long time nurse, Sandra) at Alberta Health Services-Community Care, and Homecare providers (Lois, Judy, Susan, Mary, Amy, Tracy and Sheri) for the excellent care Debbie received, which made it possible for her to stay in her home for the last few years of her life.
