FYI

The neurosurgeon who did mom's ventricilostomy is named Suzanna. Donna was the Physicians Assistant on staff who answered every question I had and let me stay with Mom during all of the procedures they were doing (once she realized I didn't pass out easily).

Doctor Chen has come by to check on us several times and keep us updated even though he is very sick.

The nurses who worked from 6:00 am yesterday until Lord knows when (they may have stayed later, when I left they were still doing paperwork at 2:30 am) are name Natalie and Candice. They stayed on without being on the clock to help stabilize Mom. I overheard them talking to a supervisor saying they were volunteering to help out and did not want any overtime.

If you have a chance, send a message to Memorial Hermann and tell them how much we appreciate the team at Neurological ICU. The staff that worked on bed #10 on Thursday evening, February 5th were dedicated, personable and were top notch.
