This article is written by Luba (Liubov) Tretyuk, RN, with the Bloomington 5 East Med-Surg team.

Looking back, I see my journey not only through challenges but also through countless opportunities for growth, fortitude, and faith in my calling.

My name is Luba, and I'm originally from Siberia. My first profession was as an elementary school teacher, but even then, deep down, I felt a passion for nursing. I've always wanted to care for people, especially those who are vulnerable, in pain, or simply in need of kindness and compassion.

After moving to the United States, I realized it was time to take a step toward my dream. I decided to become a nurse. This decision wasn't without its challenges—my English was very limited, and I had to start almost from scratch. I enrolled in English classes for adults and studied for three years to overcome the language barrier.

Even afterward, I realized my English was far from perfect. But one day, I told myself, "If you wait until you feel completely ready, you'll never start."

The Bloomington Cardiology team celebrated World Stroke Day by performing their 500th Watchman procedure on Wednesday, Oct. 29.

“Our team is very excited to reach this important milestone,” says Megan Monnier, Structural Heart coordinator. “We are grateful for the opportunity to change 500 lives with this remarkable procedure that protects our patients from atrial fibrillation-related strokes while eliminating the bleeding risks that arise with long-term use of anticoagulation.”

The Bloomington team has done great work in helping atrial fibrillation patients reduce their risk with the Watchman device, but it’s important to remember that strokes can happen to anyone.

Recognizing the signs of a stroke is crucial as prompt medical attention can make all the difference in outcomes, so be aware of stroke symptoms including:
•Numbness and/or weakness, usually one-sided, in the face, arm or leg
•Severe headache
•Trouble walking or other signs of loss of coordination
•Difficulty seeing
•Confusion
•Dizziness

If you or someone else is experiencing symptoms of a stroke, please call 911 or visit your nearest Emergency department.

A family history of colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease and certain genetic syndromes can increase your risk. Talk to your primary care provider about when you should start screenings.
