Dr. Retik,
Thank you for attending Victoria's services, it meant a great deal to Peter and me. I wanted to also let you know how much Dr. Rusty Jennings meant to us. He is an amazing surgeon who displayed an unprecedented amount of care and unrelenting efforts in regard to Victoria. In our eight months at Children's, never did I come across a doctor who was more committed or more driven to care for her.
At the same time, never did I meet a doctor who was busier. He never left a stone unturned and never left us feeling that Victoria was less than his top priority. I could never articulate just how much Dr. Jennings' style and presence meant to my husband and me. Most importantly, we feel so grateful to Dr. Jennings because he is the reason Victoria survived as long as she did. He enabled our daughter to share eight months with us. She wasn't supposed to live five minutes.
How could I repay Dr. Jennings for that? We feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to spend that time with our beautiful baby. He is the doctor and surgeon that all doctors and surgeons should strive to be. We are so grateful that he was Victoria's.
Most sincerely and with warm regards,
—Sarah and Peter Cowenhoven
