THANK YOU to the Emergency Room Staff

I came into your ER early Sunday, February 12th with a widow maker heart attack. As a Wilderness First Responder I have been frustrated that I rarely knew what happened to my patients after they moved on because of HIPAA [patient privacy laws]. First, I wanted to say thank you from ... the bottom of my heart, or actually from During my stay I had the fortune of seeing two shifts in the ER and they were both filled with love, care and wonderful people from the doctors to the CNAs. Thank you all for your attention, care and love. It was so felt! Through what were, I think, Herculean efforts to get me transported to Maine Medical Center (MMC) in Portland, I arrived there Sunday Evening. They put a stent it the left descending artery to correct a 90% blockage and I was released on Valentine’s Day which seemed appropriate! So, I am home, taking it easy, feeling well, will start cardio rehab and a follow up with local cardiologists. Sending lots of love and hugs to each and every one I interacted with! Thank you! my LAD [left anterior descending artery].
