Patient Focus:
Pepper’s Story
When you are diagnosed with cancer, your whole world comes to a screeching halt. Fear, doubt, anger, frustration suddenly become a way of life. One of the main things that register to a cancer patient during this time is compassion. Not much else can be absorbed. Sometimes compassion comes in gestures, such as hugs, or a pat on the shoulder, or simply a look that conveys care, concern and support. Other times it is expressed in words. These words don’t necessarily have to lay out a course of action and often times they don’t really offer a definitive measure of anything but compassion. This is the one of the greatest gifts Johnson County Healthcare Center offers its patients. From doctors to nurses to administrative staff to housecleaning personnel, this compassion, coupled with kindness, makes entering the doors for the abomination of chemo an ordeal that is less dreaded and less frightening. One of the best oncologists at the Mayo Clinic approved and supported the care and treatment offered by JCHC during my round with cancer. There is an added bonus here. The staff goes far beyond what is expected from their training. In the beginning days, I admitted to Mary Litzel that I didn’t think or know how I would get through chemo. Mary stated quite simply, “I don’t know how it will happen either, I can only promise you that we will get through this.” This shows that JCHC staff offer an abundance of knowledge and expertise, but more importantly they offer themselves as friends, family and neighbors as well as medical personnel. I can’t imagine going through cancer treatment with strangers – people I don’t know and know nothing about and who only knows me by words on a chart. I prefer to see the nurses and doctors as people – people I share a common bond with, whether it be children the same age, such as Mary Litzel, or faces that I have recognized since my first days in Buffalo, such as Mary Whaley and Linda ODonnell. Say what you will, healthcare should be much more than just healthcare. That is the norm at Johnson County Healthcare Center. Thank goodness the norm can extend far beyond the norm. It truly makes the difference.
