To Professor Leanne Monterosso-thank you for your positive feedback, your practical advice to improve my research quality and generosity of your time. To my nursing colleagues who have supported my learning journey and kindly volunteering to participate in my research.

To my Son, I hope you always strive to achieve your goals and dreams no matter how high or hard they may be.
