A physician who works with Jessica wrote:
"Jessica was caring for a patient with CAD requiring CABG. She learned that the patient was not going to get surgery because he was concerned about his cat. Jessica personally cared for the patient's cat for one week so that the patient would feel comfortable getting surgery. This extraordinary example of care and concern deserves DAISY recognition."
