My husband was admitted via the ER, following an outpatient CT scan. The CT scan showed a large blood clot in his lungs. My husband and I were very scared at that point. Kelly Bieniek, with her wit and humor, lightened up a very stressful situation. Her compassion as a nurse and her willingness to take that extra personal attention meant so much to both of us. She also trusted me with her phone charger since we didn't expect to be so long in the hospital my phone was dying. There were many calls and texts needed to be made to family and friends. She found humor in everything she did, making our visit to the ER a little easier. Thank you, Kelly!
