Meet Pam Cook, known to many as the unofficial “mayor” of Norton Hospital. For 20 years, she was the smiling face patients and co-workers could count on.

When Parkinson’s disease forced her into an early retirement, Pam thought her days of connecting with others were over. But with the support of Jason L. Crowell, M.D., and the team at Norton Neuroscience Institute, along with therapy at Norton Healthcare Pavilion, Pam found her strength again.

Now, instead of saying goodbye, Pam is back where she belongs — volunteering with our comfort cart, bringing joy, encouragement and comfort to patients, visitors and staff. 💙

“I was a patient at Norton, roles reversed situation, and they showed me so much love and care, just like I tried to do for the patients who came in when I was working there,” Pam shared.

What could have been the end of her story became a new chapter.

Meet Rona Garriott, whose life was upended by debilitating adult degenerative scoliosis. In early 2024, she faced excruciating back pain that made even the simplest activities, like cooking or gardening, impossible.

Despite her role working at a chiropractor’s office, her colleagues could only help manage the pain—not fix it. Rona would return home in tears, missing dinner, her garden, and the things she loved most.

But then, everything changed. With the help of Norton Leatheman Spine's expert spine specialists, Rona underwent scoliosis surgery—an operation that restored her quality of life. Now, she’s back to. 👇
✅ Working full time
👩🏼‍🌾 Gardening with joy
👩🏼‍🍳 Cooking her favorite meals
💪 Lifting weights to stay strong

Feeling empowered, Rona is living life on her terms again. Read more here. ➡️ https://bit.ly/4lNtle1
