Dr. David J. Magelssen, MD
If it wasn't for your time, effort, and kindness Ryan wouldn't have made it as far as he did. We owe you so much more than we could ever give and nothing in this world would be enough to show how much you have meant to us though this. We would also like to thank your excellent and supportive staff though all this.
Dr. Arthur Maslow
We are sorry you seemed to always be the bearer of bad news, but we wouldn't have wanted it from anyone else. Your comforting tone, and soul helped Erin accept the new anomalies, and made me know that everyone will be here to help.
Dr. Trippel, Pediatrics Northwest
Thank you for taking the time to see us and consult with us on the heart. Thank you for your quick and prompt response when Ryan was delivered. Your honesty was very well received, and we thank you for that. You have been so nice, and caring with our situation. You treat as if we were your only patient and your attitude and kindness you have showed us is, is something we are unable to express in words, or show you. Thank you so much.
Dr. Wolfe, Pediatrics Northwest
The moment you entered our lives we will never forget the time you set aside for us to talk, your kindness, caring, and the way you related to us made us feel like we were not alone. We thank you for looking after our little Ryan.
Dr. Hall, Pediatric Surgeon
You delivered the unsettling news to my wife, but she was most comforted with the way you explained it to her, with tears in your eyes, and she could tell you were truly sorry for not being able to help our child. Please don't ever lose your bedside manner and we wish you the best in bringing life into new babies and children.
Dr. Barford

Dr. Knudson, NICU Team
You had the pleasure of taking us though the most traumatic times in our lives. You comforted us though the terrible, and though the sorrow.
