I had a stroke in May. I remember just a lot of very concerned faces running around. Cassie was the nurse that tended to me that night. She was extremely thoughtful and caring. I am young and to experience this life-changing event was extremely traumatizing. Thank you, Cassie, for all your compassion. Having to lay still for 24 hours and pee in bed is very personal and almost humiliating. Thank you for making these experiences as painless as possible.
