Kaleb Braun always knew he would pursue some form of medical care as a career, but an unexpected trip to the hospital for an emergency appendectomy solidified his plans to become a physician assistant.
In June, Kaleb went to the Baptist Parkridge Emergency Department after suffering all night from a bad stomachache. He later had an emergency appendectomy. After the care he received from his “excellent, compassionate, calming medical team,” he said, “I could tell this is something I want to do. I learned a lot about how to treat a patient from being a patient.”
Kaleb’s dad wrote a letter to the team thanking them for the great medical care but also for being “friendly, responsible, professional” and for “the authentic concern, support and encouragement they provided.”
“He is only 18; this was his first time obtaining medical emergency help on his own,” Daniel Braun said. “The staff did an amazing job by not only immediately recognizing the severity of the situation but also identifying his nervousness … they calmed him and provided reassurance.”
When the nurses learned about Kaleb’s intention to pursue a career as a physician’s assistant, they provided him guidance and contact information for shadowing and volunteer opportunities.
Daniel wrote, “EVERY staff member we interacted with – from Security and the front counter staff to the surgical and recovery team – provided continuous reassurance, clear and concise information on a level that a young adult could understand, and all-around genuine excellence in medical care.”
Kaleb recently graduated high school and is part of the University of South Carolina–Midlands Tech Bridge Program. In two years, he hopes to transfer to the College of Charleston’s medical program.
Acute care nurse Disney Cuddington said, “Learning from Kaleb's parents that he had an interest in entering the medical field gave me such joy! Our field is always in need of kind, passionate individuals with good hearts, something I knew right away about Kaleb. He was in pain and nervous about what was going on, but he was still grateful to staff.”
She added, “Our jobs are tough. We see terrible things too often, and the community can rarely understand. Hearing how our care positively impacted Kaleb and solidified his desire to join our field brings great satisfaction to me – and we will count that as a big win!”

July is , and Dr. Frank Clark, psychiatrist with Prisma Health in the Upstate, encourages others to learn about Black, Indigenous and other people of color year-round.
Clark says depression, anxiety and talking about your feelings are often taboo in the minority community. It's one of many things that contributes to what he says is a mental health crisis.
At Prisma Health, we hope to help everyone in our communities achieve their best self, both mentally and physically!

The road to recovery has been long and remarkable for Sean who was injured in a motorcycle accident. In his first days at Trauma ICU, he worked with Chris, an Occupational Therapist Assistant, and Nicholas, a Physical Therapist Assistant. Sean continued his healing at a long-term acute care hospital before he came to Prisma Health Roger C. Peace Rehabilitation Hospital for inpatient rehabilitation. Therapists Chris and Nicholas came to see Sean on his day of discharge to celebrate with him. Our team feels honored to have been alongside Sean during his journey of recovery.

Ken Donhauser is a 70-year-old father of three and grandfather of six enjoying retired life in Easley with his wife Valerie. After a mass was found during a colonoscopy, general surgeon Colin Webb, MD, suggested a colectomy using robotic surgery.
“After the surgery I felt good and had no pain,” Ken said. “I was told to try to walk as much as possible, which would help with my recovery time. I walked a lot and was able to be released the next day. My recovery was uneventful with no problems.”
Ken is especially grateful to the team who cared for him.
“My care was excellent from the doctors to nurses and support staff,” he said. “Everyone was very friendly and caring. I was checked on quite often to see if I needed anything. The staff was as caring and friendly as you could possibly ask for.”

The Prisma Health Center for Prosthetics and Orthotics is always working to bring patients the newest and best technologies. Do you know about the Alps VIP High Vacuum System? Weighing only 75g, it is one of the lightest vacuum suspension systems on the market. The Alps VIP High Vacuum System is a prosthetic socket suspension system that creates a tight seal around the residual limb, using vacuum pressure to hold the limb securely in place.
The system includes a vacuum pump, a suspension sleeve, and a special valve that regulates the vacuum level. It features a one-way valve that allows air to be expelled from the socket when the vacuum is activated. The vacuum pump is small, lightweight, and easy to use; simply begin walking. When the prosthetic user takes steps the weight and motion of gait compresses the pump, when the user returns to swing phase the pump refills that is then again expelled in stance. Once optimum suspension is achieved the suction is held via the suspension sleeve. Questions? Call 864-522-3880.

Bob Gleason, a registered nurse at Prisma Health Children’s Hospital – Upstate, has been a Camp Courage counselor for three summers. To him this is a way to give back and support kids who are going through a journey similar to his family’s.
In 2008, Bob and his wife lost their 2.5-year-old daughter to neuroblastoma. At the time, he was working in construction, but losing his daughter led him to pursue a nursing career. Only six months later, he started school.
“I started nursing and volunteering at Camp Courage to honor my daughter. I really enjoy doing it because a lot of these kids don’t get to experience a regular camp, but this gives them that opportunity. I can just imagine my daughter being there and she would have loved it,” said Bob.
Now he has a 20-year-old daughter who is following in his footsteps – both in nursing and volunteering at Camp Courage for the second year.
Camp Courage creates an unforgettable recreational and educational experience for children, teens, young adults and families living with cancer or a blood disorder. This allows them to share similar experiences with peers while participating in activities that promote normal development encourage age-appropriate coping with the challenges they face.

Nine-year-old Waylon Legrand Hentz was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in 2022. But when he attends CAMP KEMO every July, he doesn’t have to feel different from the kids around him; instead, he can just enjoy being a kid around others who are experiencing similar challenges.
Caroline Bull, 10, had three open heart surgeries by the time she was 3 years old. But there’s no concern for her safety when she attends Camp Heart to Heart, a medically supervised camp for children with congenital heart conditions.
Aiden Johnson, 11, has type 1 diabetes, but at Camp Buddy, designed specifically for children with type 1 diabetes, he feels a sense of belonging he can’t always find elsewhere. “Camp Buddy is like a vacation for Aiden, a chance to be free and connect with others who truly understand his experiences,” said Aiden’s mother, Jasmine Johnson.
Thomas Nelson, 11, has hearing loss due to chronic illnesses that came with being born with a vascular ring that compressed his esophagus. He loves to attend Camp Wonder Hands, which provides a unique experience for children ages 7-17 who are deaf or hard of hearing. It gives him a chance to make friends and enjoy activities such as horseback riding and swimming.
Fourteen-year-old Alyssa Ross received bilateral cochlear implants at the age of three to improve her hearing. At age 7, she started attending Camp Wonder Hands and is attending her seventh camp this year. She loves the skits, water activities and embracing the freedom to be authentically herself with people who understand her.
Marcus Davis, 18, lost his father when he was only 14, and it changed his life. He tried one-on-one therapy sessions to help with depression and shutting down. It wasn’t until he attended group sessions at Healing Hearts that he was able to open up and cope with his grief. “It was a game changer for us. The staff was so amazing and helpful, Marcus was so interactive and helped other kids talk about their grief,” said Marcus’ mother, Julie.
Prisma Health Children’s Hospital takes its mission to create a better state of health for children beyond the walls of hospitals and doctor’s offices and aims to help young patients find connection and a sense of belonging. Offering these summer camp opportunities for patients is one way we live out that mission.
We wish you and your loved ones a happy, healthy, and safe Independence Day!
