Samaritan Hospitals in Oregon treat Cancer and Heart disease

We just received Heart to Heart in the mail. A small magazine from Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital. Two stories jumped out at me.
The first is found on page ten, Cancer care. Macke and Mary Williams story centered around them both surviving Cancer, quoting from the story, "they considered themselves, "Mayo people." A happy robust appearing couple. Both struck by different forms of cancer. Survivors, who were grateful to the Mario Pastega House. "A home that serves families needing access to Samaritan's Corvallis-based services." Quoted from page 12. The theme from the story is one of hope.

The second story found on page 24 highlights that no matter what your title in life, heart problems arise. The President of Samaritan, Larry A Mullins found out he needed heart bypass surgery. Mr. Mullins survived and gave much thanks and appreciation to his care team. Mr. Mullins had many other offers from colleagues across the country and he chose Samaritan.

These stories provide a small glimpse into the health care system in Oregon. And the great work these facilities are doing.

Best wishes to both parties for continued good health and happy living.
