I consider February 4th as my 2nd birthday.

Why? It’s the day I was released from Guthrie Corning Hospital after a very close call with double Covid Pneumonia. My stay at the hospital was from 1/5/21 - 2/4/21.

Yes, 31 days starting in the ER, then moving to the Covid ward, to ICU bed #2 for 18 days and back to the 2nd floor before discharge. I received care by many Guthrie sections Drs, Nurses, Respiratory, Imaging, Blood draw and Pharmacy.

I know that I was blessed and luckier than many . For this I will always be grateful. Grateful to God, family and friends for prayers.

I am extremely grateful to the healthcare professionals at Guthrie Corning Hospital who were on the front line at a very challenging time.

I've created this page because I want to make a difference. I'm inspired by the work of Guthrie and the positive impact on the health and well-being of people in our area they make. I wanted to support the most critical healthcare needs of the greater Corning area by raising money for Guthrie Corning Hospital.

Sincerely,

Mike Ambrosone
