Marcella Cotter
Heart Attack Survivor
"I had severe pain in my chest and I
could hardly get my breath. Finally, I told my son I needed to get it
taken care of, and he took me to the emergency room. They didn't waste
any time. They took us right in, and treated me like a queen the entire
time I was there. I don't think I could have gone anyplace else and
gotten the care I got at St. John's." |

Kim & Alyssa Huang
High-Risk Pregnancy Survivors
"I had had problems throughout my pregnancy
with Alyssa. I started out with high blood pressure, and as the
pregnancy progressed, it kept getting higher and higher. We knew there
was going to be a problem." |

Callie Lamb
Emergency Appendectomy Survivor
“She was a very sick little girl. Her
appendix had ruptured into lots of little pieces. I don’t even want to
think about what would have happened if we hadn’t seen Dr. Ford that
day.”

Joseph Hopfinger
Brain Tumor Survivor
"At
baseball practice, I missed a throw and it hit me in
the
head. During a routine scan at St. John’s, they detected
a
brain tumor. I’m really thankful they found it before
it
became more serious. My family and I couldn’t have
been
happier with the care I received."

Carol Crab
Breast Cancer Survivor
"After
a biopsy, I was diagnosed with breast cancer.
I
was devastated. But the care I received at
St.
John’s was wonderful. Everyone there was
supportive throughout. I underwent surgery,
and
was treated with chemotherapy and radiation.
And
now I am cancer-free and feel as good as ever."

Beverly Brake
Heart Attack Survivor
"The
pain started in my chest and quickly spread
throughout my upper body. At St. John’s they told me it
was
a heart attack. I underwent an immediate angioplasty
to
open two blockages in my artery and a blood clot.
Thanks to St. John’s, I’ve recovered completely
and
feel wonderful now."

Luke Shepard
Orthopedics Patient
"I had a rock climbing accident
where I rolled my ankle and snapped it like a twig. My care at St.
John’s was excellent. I had great doctors who were willing to work and
communicate with me. Athletics is a giant part of my life and I’m just
as agile as I ever was."
