Two years ago, Meredith arrived at our sister hospital, HCA HealthONE Swedish, after a life-changing accident that involved broken bones and multiple skin and tissue grafts to save her leg. She wasn't sure if she would walk again. Today, she is back to her passion—and she’s using it to say "thank you" in the most incredible way.

At the recent Sanding Ovations Sand Sculpting Festival in Florida, Meredith unveiled a design titled "The Day I Lived." The sculpture features an angel sheltering three figures under her wing. Those figures are the likenesses of her HCA HealthONE care team: Dr. Benson Pulikkottil, Dr. Wade Smith and ICU Nurse Ally.

Meredith calls them her "true angels" who put her back together. While Meredith designed the piece, she is still regaining the physical ability to climb the high forms required for this scale of work, so the sculpting was executed by the talented Abe Waterman.

This arctic blast is serious — doctors are saying frostbite can set in within minutes when skin is exposed. Even quick trips outside can add up faster than you think.

A few easy ways to stay safe:
• Layer up and cover exposed skin (hands, ears, face especially) 🧤🧣
• Limit time outside when temps and wind chills are brutal
• Watch for numbness or pale/waxy skin — those can be early frostbite signs
• Bring pets inside and check on neighbors who may need help
