A true story. Mary Faderan's mother, Sally Faderan, was almost 80 years old in 2011. She was a vivacious and loving mother and wife to Don Faderan. She had a sore on her left heel and had several trips to her dermatologist and physician, and was wrongly diagnosed until her dermatologist figured out she had chronic limb ischemia. Alerted to this, her doctor in Lafayette, Indiana, sent her to the foot doctor who sent her to the local hospital in Lafayette, Indiana. The surgeon inserted two stents in her thigh to open up the circulation. However, Sally developed severe lack of appetite and had to be taken to the ER. After several trips to the ER, she was admitted and prepped for gall bladder surgery. She went through a series of problems resulting in a heart attack. She coded once, and then the hospital transferred her to a hospice care hospital, Seton, where she developed sepsis and died on March 25, 2011 after coding twice.
