The family acknowledges the outstanding care and compassion that was given by Dr. Gordon Morris and his practice partner, Dr. Rob Pritchard, Dr. Cynthia Spaulding and her practice partner, Dr. Sylvia Hendrix, and Dr. Frances Ansa of Martha Jefferson Hospital. The family also thanks the nurses, pharmacists, respiratory therapists, patient care assistants, and support staff from the clinic/infusion center, radiation oncology center, South 7, and the Intensive Care Unit at Martha Jefferson Hospital for their outstanding care and compassion. The excellent continuity of care that their loved one received at each level of her illness was a blessing. God bless you all!
