    Dear Officer Martinez,
    I want you to know you are at one of the finest Medical facilities I have experienced as a nurse or a patient. I woke up in a Mercy Hospital bed after doing a 360 or 720 or maybe even a 1080 when my truck started spinning 90 seconds after it started raining. I saw river, mountain, river MOUNTAIN or river, mountain, river, mountain, river, MOUNTAIN! Thank God I ran into the mountain.
    They waited 3 days for me to stabilize and the swelling to subside before they literally screwed my arm back together. Jose, my arm looks and works PERFECT. I want you to know they recruit Drs. who are excellent in their field. That made me feel so much better knowing the QUALITY OF CARE I received was intentional, due to an excellent, hand picked staff. So Jose, kick back, know you did good by making it through the first day and waking up at Mercy Hospital. Do what your Drs., nurses, and therapists instruct you to do and if you do not understand something or need clarification ASK QUESTIONS. That is the secret to a speedy recovery.
