MEMORANDUM

¶2

Harry E. Burnsworth, an Arizona state prisoner, appeals pro se the district court's summary judgment in favor of Mary Pick, a prison nurse, in this 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 action. We review de novo, Terrell v. Brewer, 935 F.2d 1015, 1018 (9th Cir.1991), and we affirm.

¶3

Burnsworth contends that his Eighth Amendment rights were violated because Nurse Pick was deliberately indifferent to his serious medical needs. We disagree. In an order filed on August 6, 1993, the district court granted Pick's motion for summary judgment. We affirm the judgment for the reasons stated in the district court's thorough and well-reasoned order.

¶4

AFFIRMED.
