I was scheduled for my angioplasty on my left leg with Dr. H. I was in the recovery room, and my Nurse was Kim Kelleher. If it weren’t for Kim I might be dead. I was scheduled to be released, but something happened that saved my life. I began to have the shakes and I was bouncing off the bed. That was how bad I was shaking. Kim noticed that I had a wound on my left toe; she examined it and said that it was very bad. She insisted to Dr. H that I be admitted because I had a fever and the shakes. I was admitted and that night I had a heart attack. They did a procedure on my heart, but they couldn’t help me at Lowell, so they transferred me to Brigham MGH to a unit for High risk. I had two stents put in my heart. The rest of the story gets better. I went home from MGH two days later I had a fever and became septic and they had to remove my toe. So, if it wasn’t for the care and due diligence of Ms. Kelleher who by the way was 8.5 months pregnant and watching over me until after 1:00 am that night I may have not made it. I am okay now, doing better every day. I just received my last dose of antibiotics and am home from rehab. So please say a big thank you to Kim from me and my family.
