My dad had a successful bypass surgery. 5 days post op he unexplainably coded and went back to the ICU. That day was terrifying as we watched him deteriorate as they searched for a cause. Janie Conner was the night duty nurse. As soon as she came on shift, she immediately put all her focus on my dad. She double checked everything. Because of her diligence, she caught that his blood transfusion had not been ordered as thought.
Janie followed through on every detail. My family and I firmly believe that she was critical in the turnaround of his condition. Initially we planned to stay with him throughout the night. Janie was so competent and her attention to even the smallest details so great, we felt confident to go and sleep at the hotel that night. That was huge! Everyone cared for my dad and was working very hard to save him, however Janie absolutely stood out above all the others. Thank you, Janie! We owe you a tremendous debt. I pray blessings for you. You definitely blessed us!
