My mother has been going there since 1985 and I can't count the number of times she's been at St. Mary's. But I do know that if it wasn't for them she wouldn't be with us today. I'm the first one to say they aren't perfect, they can and do make mistakes but I feel more confident in their mistakes than any other medical facitlities successes. If my mother's doc would have only sent her there a year sooner the last 25 years would have been so different but he didnt and now Mayo has been trying to correct his mistakes ever since. I owe them everything, and you're right, from the escorts to the top surgeons they all make you feel at home and that they listen to you. Occassionally you'll get a doc that don't but in the 25 years my mother's been going there she's only had a couple of docs that didn't really want to hear your opinion. And what can I say about the nursing staff? We go there every 3 weeks for a checkup and unfortunately my mother has been admitted alot and there is a couple of floors (one of the being ICU) where all the nurses and secretaries know us by name and sight. Every couple of months I take them some of my homemade snack mix, it seems so small compared to what they have given me and my family. We haven't, and hopefully never will, had to deal with oncology but she's dealt with just about every other department since 1985 and I just can't say enough good about the whole Mayo system.

It is where my sister-in-law is receiving her care too. She has non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and is doing well, under the guidance and treatment at the Mayo Clinic. You two are in my prayers and thoughts. I am sharing this info. with Don and Gail Kelley, who do not have a computer. They send their prayers too. They are back from Florida and we had lunch together after church this past Sunday.
