Drop a ❤ in the comments for Guardian Angel Award Recipients, Cardiologist Dr. Weiwei Li and Ashley Engelken, RN, who made quite an impression on a recent patient and family.

Here are the messages the patient's spouse shared:

"Dr Li, we want to say that we are so blessed to have you in our lives. We feel very fortunate to have an amazing doctor like you in our area. You have helped my husband with his Afib and made us feel at ease about it all. I was a nervous wreck learning that he had heart issues, but you have helped me so much just knowing he has the best doctor around taking care of him. Thank you so much for your wonderful care of my sweet husband. You deserve to be acknowledged as truly ONE OF THE BEST!"

"Ashley, we wanted you to know that you were absolutely wonderful with my husband after his Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion (LAAO) procedure. We appreciate the care you gave him and me. You were so knowledgeable about the whole thing. We both felt so comfortable with your help. I also appreciate you calling me a security guard to walk me to the parking lot late that night. We felt very blessed to have you be the one to take care of us both. Thank you for the exceptional care you give your patients. You deserve this guardian angel award so much."

Receiving monthly IVIG (intravenous immunoglobulin) infusions at St. Luke’s Hospital has been life-changing for 8-year-old Luke, who was diagnosed with PANS (Pediatric Acute-onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome) at age 4.5. PANS can cause the sudden onset of neurological and behavioral symptoms, such as mood changes, anxiety, and obsessive thoughts.

Each month, Luke spends two full days in our pediatric unit for his infusions. What could be a scary experience has become something he looks forward to, thanks to the caring team at St. Luke’s.

He's developed a passion for the medical field and is always asking his nurses thoughtful questions about the equipment, medications, and how everything works. He crafted his own IV pump which he uses to care for his favorite toys during treatments and at his own hospital setup at home. He recently had a nurse-themed birthday party, complete with an IV pump replica cake made by his mom.

Luke’s mom shared that his care team has become like friends, and they feel at home during his visits. Our pediatric nurses like Shaley, Jenny, Jennie, Tasia, Melissa, Holly, Ashley, Tami, Kim, Karee, Annie, and Tori, along with our techs Kourtney and Lexi, have played an especially meaningful role in his journey. His family appreciates the spacious patient rooms and access to the Ronald McDonald Family Room for a quick snack or place to relax. Thanks to the impact of IVIG and the exceptional care he receives, Luke is not only managing his condition, but enjoying his time in the hospital.

Can breast milk actually be blue? https://uph.link/jri

While some breast milk color changes are clearly linked to a condition, medication or diet, others are less understood. If your breast milk is blue, yellow, clear or another color, learn what it means and when to worry.

𝗪𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗼! 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗻, St. Luke's occupational therapy assistant II, created a custom slide board for a patient, to support safe and independent transfers from their wheelchair. She identified the need for a modified version of the device, tailored to the patient's chair, for greater independence during their transition home.

Michelle crafted the board in St. Luke's generate Lab with the help of a skilled volunteer, Tim Hughes, ME, PMP, 3aP. It was safety-tested and coated for easy cleaning before being given to the patient.
