Awoman who suffered from cancer as a teenager has reunited with the “life-changing” nurse who cared for her — 30
yearslater.
Liz Brown, a 43-year-old mother of three from East Riding, Yorkshire, was diagnosed with cancer when she was 14
years old. Ms Brown received the diagnosis having woken up frightened on her 14th birthday. She was admitted to a

While being monitored (监护) at the hospital, Ms Brown was looked after by a kind nurse called Debbie Bye. Ms
Brown has never forgotten the good care that Ms Bye provided during her time of need. “My prognosis (预断) was very
poor,” MsBrownsaid. “Iwasn’texpectedtolivemorethanfiveyears,butnowI’m43withthreechildrenandthere’snot
a wheelchair in sight. She might have thought she was doing her job but it went above and beyond that. I remember
watching Debbie work and being so inspired by the way that she did things. She showed me that children are children no
matterwhatiswrongwiththemandshetreatedusallthesame.”
The childhood cancer survivor always wondered what had happened to the nurse over the years, which is why she
decided to put a call out on Twitter. Ms Brown tweeted an appeal to find Ms Bye, with her tweet being shared more than
1,000 times. Her action proved successful, as the two women were eventually able to make contact (取得联系) thanks to
thepowerofsocialmedia.
“To be there when Lizzy was given her prognosis was something I will never forget,” said Ms Bye, who has since
retired(退休)fromhospitalworkandnowworkspart-time inaschool. “ShewasateenagerindenialandovertheyearsI
