I appreciate the staff on CVICU, especially Cindy Stevenson. During my husband’s last admission, Cindy was phenomenal with his care and us as the family. Even though he passed away, I know Cindy did everything humanly possible to pull him through. I’m a nurse, but have no experience in the ICU. She kept me well informed. I really felt she knew what I needed to hear as far as his condition. I didn’t want to give up and I didn’t know when to stop. Cindy knew when and gently guided me in the decision. I am forever in her debt for that. She was the constant professional yet added the caring and compassionate touch as well. It was a very difficult time for us that day as his family and I am so thankful that Cindy was there fighting to keep him going until it was time to let go.
