Cheryl Stephens
Caleb Stephens of Colorado was part of a film crew that came to West Texas to film. While working, he was hit by a car, sustained life-threatening injuries, and was rushed to UMC’s Level 1 Trauma Center. Eventually, Caleb endured seven surgeries, defying the odds from multiple injuries. For twenty-one days, Caleb’s health depended on the great care he received in UMC's Trauma Surgical ICU. For Cheryl and her son Caleb, both far away from home, UMC became far more than a hospital. Today, evidence of Caleb’s accident remains, but he is healed and back home. In the words of a very grateful mom, “All praise to Almighty God for giving our family the wonderful gift of University Medical Center."
