I had been terrified of a colposcopy for months, not knowing what will happen during the procedure, as well as obviously of my health. I arrived to the Gynaecology Ward and was taken through to the room where the procedure was to take place. Brida and nurse Scorpio (sorry I missed your name) made me feel so safe, looked after me and made me laugh out loud through out the procedure. I cannot explain what a difference this makes to someone who is in my position. Each step was explained to me before and during the procedure although I was busy telling nurse Scorpio about my new boyfriend. I can’t say that I would like to have another procedure at any time soon, but if these two were there, I had to, I would, smiling (laughing actually). Happy birthday to us nurse Scorpio! ❤️❤️❤️
