Thanks, Manatee Memorial, for amazing care, treatment

A recent bout with the "Influenza A" virus, which escalated to pneumonia, required a visit to the Emergency Room at Manatee Memorial Hospital and a week of inpatient care at that facility.

I wanted to thank all of the doctors, nurses, technicians and care givers that diagnosed and treated my condition, then continued to watch over me during my stay. They were amazing.

Our community is fortunate to have a hospital where care is administered along with medication.
