Mrs. B called to make sure that I recognized how outstanding our staff on ART 6 West truly is. "Jennie Saved My Husband's Life!! J. had given up, he had actually told the doctors to take him off the transplant list, that he was tired of everything and was ready to die. J had lost all his faith in the doctors, Jennie is responsible for turning this around and saving his life by taking the time to listen to him and to talk to him.

She made a huge impression on J and convinced him to continue to try and made him realize that he had more to live for. Jennie is the only reason that J agreed to stay on the transplant list for a liver and kidney, without her he would be dead right now. Jennie took the time to explain to J that she had four years' experience and that there was hope for him. By Jennie taking the time to listen to my husband she restored his faith and hope. Jennie made him promise that he would not give up. Jennie said all the right things that we needed to hear but did not provide any false hope. Not only did Jennie give J hope but me as well.

By taking the extra time to listen to J she saved his life by providing him with some faith and hope. Jennie is the reason that my husband is alive today!!"

I am Jennie's Assistant Nurse Manager, I wrote this from a phone conversation with Mrs. B after writing it I returned Mrs. B's phone call and read it to her just to verify my accuracy she cried and thanked me.
