I want to clarify what I wrote earlier. I worked at the Ohio State Med Center from 1975 to 1997. One of my jobs at Administrative Associate was to handle press calls on evenings/nights and weekends. I was on duty when Kelly’s sister Kristi Elliott came in to the ED with that terrible injury.

I didn’t remember her name, until Kelly posted the story. Immediately I knew it was the same person.

As I mentioned above, I remember her coming in, and I distinctively remember her parents coming in, tearful and extremely concerned.

I probably received press calls from local tv and radio and the Columbus Dispatch…I don’t remember.

I never knew what happened to Kristi until I saw the article that Kelly linked above.

I saw a lot sad things at the hospital over the years. One of them was seeing the look on the faces of Kristi and Kelly’s parents. I’ll never forget that.

Bless the entire family, and bless Kristi’s memory.
