Grace had an amazing medical history. Beginning in her twenties, Grace achieved frequent flyer status at Kaiser, experiencing:<\/p>\n

\n
• Life-long back pain from experimental disk fusion surgery in 1959.<\/li>\n
• Life-long heart murmur (aortic stenosis)<\/li>\n

• Skin cancer on head and surgery in 2011 and 2013.<\/li>\n

• She fell walking on an incline in a restaurant in 2007, resulting in a fractured hip and hip replacement surgery.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  I found these notes in one of her health folders, apparently jotted down when the docs found the lung cancer:<\/p>\n

  Grace was usually fortunate in her choice of a medical team at Kaiser Health. She worked with many physicians and nurses who practiced loving kindness as well as medicine. These included her family practitioner, Tim Pile, her cardiologist, Sanford Warren, the cardiology nurse practitioner, Lynn Rackerby, and her oncologist, Christine Camille Kaiser, among others.<\/p>\n
