12-year-old Evie-Rose was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) last July, a rare type of cancer, with around 3,100 people diagnosed with it each year in the UK.
Recently, she was given the all-clear and rang the end-of-treatment bell with her family and the wonderful 3B staff in attendance!
Paul, Evie-Rose’s dad, said: “The staff at Alder Hey have supported both Evie-Rose and our whole family in ways we will never be able to put into words fully. From the very beginning, when everything felt frightening and unknown, they treated not just her illness but cared for her as a person, always showing kindness, patience, and reassurance during the hardest moments of treatment.
“Kat Lyndsey, and Becky Evans have been truly exceptional. They took the time to explain things clearly, answer every question (no matter how small), and made sure we felt supported and involved in every step of Evie-Rose’s care. Their compassion helped turn overwhelming days into ones we could manage, and they always made Evie-Rose feel safe, valued, and understood.
“All of the nurses on Ward 3B have been incredible. They brought warmth, smiles, and encouragement even on the toughest days, often going above and beyond to make hospital life that little bit easier for Evie-Rose and for us as a family. Their dedication, professionalism, and genuine care have made an immeasurable difference to our journey.
“We will always be grateful for the role each of them played in helping Evie-Rose through treatment. They didn’t just care for her medically; they carried us emotionally through some of the most difficult moments of our lives.”
