I was able to recover due to Kerry's dedication to patient care and suggesting using the ECMO unit to the attending doctors.
I am a Pasco County Deputy who drowned on duty and was flown into your amazing facility. Kerry followed my wife in this difficult situation, constantly providing hope for my recovery. I was able to recover due to Kerry's dedication to patient care and suggesting using the ECMO unit to the attending doctors. This is the only reason I am on this earth today. Kerry still contacts my wife to check on my progress, and the pair have become friends as Kerry's love for her patients is truly evident.
