"Dr. Delgado: We would like to let you know how much we appreciate you and thank you for everything you have done for us. Your kindness means so very much. We thank God for you daily."
Eileen Falker and her husband, Jerry
On the website, Caring Bridge, Jerry chronicled Eileen's journey of recovery from a ruptured brain aneurysm. In this excerpt, Jerry thanks Dr. Josser Delgado and other "unsung heroes" who helped along the way:
"I have thanked many friends in these pages over the last year, and I thank you all again for what you have done, even if it was just calling to say hello...really. But there are unsung heroes, whom I have not thanked, who would all say that they were just doing their jobs. Yes, but in a way that sets them apart from all others.
First is Dr. Josser Delgado, the young, neurointerventional radiologist, who saved Eileen's life one year ago tonight by inserting a tiny platinum coil, through a long catheter that passed through her heart and into her brain, to stop the bleeding aneurysm. Not only did Josser do his job, but he has also kept talking to us all year and has never failed to respond to a text message, usually in just a few minutes (and on weekends too). Thank you, Josser!"

"Dr. Delgado: I am so grateful and appreciative of all of your care and expertise throughout my stay here at Abbott Northwestern Hospital. You are truly amazing and I feel very blessed!"
Keri McLaughlin
"Dr. Delgado: You are a 'Life Saver'! I was in so much pain, I wanted to wake my husband and have him bring me to the ER, but instead I said another prayer to God…'Lord, please give me the strength to make it to my appointment, then surround me with people who will find out what’s causing my headache and fix it.' You are one of those people that God so graciously brought me to, you were an answer to my prayer. Thank you again for saving my life."
Richard C. Mont
Dr. Delgado: Thank you so very much for giving my life back! I wish the very best to you and your staff. You are the best!
Paul S. Phillippi
"My wife and I just returned from a road trip to the Grand Canyon - it was wonderful. Dr. Delgado - you saved my life and made this road trip possible. It's a testimony to the quality of life you have given me. I wish there were a better way to express my thankfulness but I am very grateful and more then appreciative. So thank you from the depths of my being! You have made a profound difference in my life."
