They Saved My Life
It wasn’t until Nilo Bahadorani, 39, was getting treated for a low iron level that she discovered she had an asymptomatic case of COVID-19. Because her infection compromised her blood oxygen levels, the prescribed iron drip caused a life-threatening allergic reaction. Her heart started racing, and she was rushed to Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center by ambulance.
“I sit here today only because of the extraordinary efforts from the people at Tarzana. My survival hung by a thread at one point,” said Adrian whose complete recovery from COVID-19 was nothing short of miraculous. “The doctors and nurses did a phenomenal job.”
Pam Kessler’s baby was sick all night. When he began throwing up blood the next day, she rushed him Providence Tarzana. Diagnosed with an intestinal blockage, her son immediately went into surgery. Dr. Shaul, the surgeon, emerged at 1:30 AM from the OR to tell Pam the surgery had been successful and that her son had a wonderful prognosis.
Peter began showing COVID-19 symptoms a week after a brunch. What seemed like a head cold quickly progressed to bouts of shaking. In the hospital, he was one step away from going on ventilator. Finally, during his second week in isolation care, Peter’s condition began to improve. “I couldn’t have hoped for better care,” he says.
“If you live in the Valley, you need to support the Valley.” Karl Boeckmann is firm in that belief — and he does a lot to live up to his word, including charitable gift annuities to Providence Cedars-Sinai Tarzana Medical Center.

“I couldn’t have hoped for better care,
or for more detailed explanations about my condition and the treatments I was receiving. I was also grateful that the hospital had all the medical technology I needed.”
