Meet Joy and Mary K
Joy Dusek arrived at Hotel Dieu Shaver Rehab nearly ten years ago after a horrific automobile accident. The accident took her boyfriend's life and left Joy with some brain trauma. Upon arriving to Hotel Dieu Shaver, Joy was greeted by Mary Kukaryshen (Mary K), Registered Practical Nurse. The brain trauma caused Joy to speak Dutch when she awoke, and ironically Mary K was also Dutch and could speak fluently. The conditions could not have been better.
