First of all, I would like to say all the nurses were all good and professional. With that being said I would like to focus on one individual. My wife would call the hospital, out of all who would answer and speak with her, Bryant left the best impression. He explained everything in detail. Time on the phone did not matter. I did not have high blood pressure before I got to the hospital. My wife was a healthcare giver in Delaware for 14 years. She would monitor our blood pressure. I would talk to this nurse about my blood pressure. I remember he said to me your pressure is a snapshot in time, and not the end of the story. He told me I was about to "stroke out". They said I needed blood pressure medication. I knew that my body was going through such stress that my pressure went through the roof. It would come back down. Bryant said to me one day, this thing isn't hard to figure out, your body was stressed and your blood pressure rocketed. It will get back to where ever it was. He didn't know my pressure was normal before all this. He "Got It". Bryant was on top of his game! I knew then he had a good sense of judgment and was straight to the point. My wife and I are Messianic Hebrews. For over 25 years we have read the scriptures every day together. I did not have a Bible. I asked the nurse if he could find me one. I know Bibles aren't too high on people's priority list but he went through the entire hospital, but could not find one. He felt bad he couldn't. He went above and beyond the call of duty. I tip my hat to this caliber of a person.
