This month, we're celebrating how the physicians we work with are putting our values into action. Nominated for displaying the CHRISTUS value of compassion, we're honoring Dr. Daniel De Los Santos! When a patient arrived in the ER experiencing an anaphylactic reaction, he was overwhelmed with fear. Dr. De Los Santos immediately recognized his distress and sat beside him, calmly explaining what was happening and reassuring him throughout the emergency. His gentle, compassionate presence helped bring comfort during a frightening moment. The patient later shared how deeply moved he was by the care he received, expressing sincere gratitude for the kindness and reassurance provided by Dr. De Los Santos.

Thank you, Dr. De Los Santos, for your tireless dedication and the exceptional standard you set for compassionate, expert care.

In honor of Black History Month, we are celebrating our black saints and holy figures like Venerable Augustus Tolton. Born into slavery in 1854, Tolton escaped with his family to freedom and was raised in the Catholic faith despite immense hardship. Though rejected by every U.S. seminary because of racism, he persevered and was ordained in Rome, becoming the first known Black Catholic priest in the United States. He returned home to minister with humility, joy and compassion, drawing people of all backgrounds together through his witness. His life reflects extraordinary faith, resilience and a commitment to the healing mission of Christ.

Heart disease recovery doesn’t end when a patient leaves the hospital. Our cardiac rehabilitation program is helping patients rebuild strength, restore confidence and reduce their risk of future heart problems. Recently, the New Braunfels cardiac rehab team earned recertification from the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation, recognizing its commitment to best practices and high-quality outcomes.

Studies show patients who complete cardiac rehab can reduce hospital readmissions by up to 30% and live longer than those who don’t participate.

In honor of Black History Month, we are honoring our black saints and holy figures like Blessed Marie-Clémentine Anuarite Nengapeta. Born in Congo in 1939, she became a religious sister with the Holy Family Sisters and lived with deep faith during a time of civil war. In 1964, rebels attacked her convent, and she was assaulted and killed for refusing violence and remaining faithful. Even in her final moments, she proclaimed forgiveness: “I forgive you for you do not know what you do.” Beatified by Pope St. John Paul II in 1985, her life remains a profound testament to courage, mercy and the power of forgiveness.

It was during a routine checkup that Mary Skidmore learned she had a bicuspid aortic valve, a condition where the aortic valve has two flaps instead of three. She was referred to Cardiology Specialist Dr. Michael Benca. Tests found an ascending aortic aneurysm. She had open heart surgery, and a Dacron sleeve was placed around her aortic arch. Years later, when she experienced shortness of breath and leg swelling, Mary met with Cardiothoracic Surgeon Dr. Brannon Hyde and learned she needed a valve replacement. She chose the TAVR procedure after learning about its quick recovery and the option to have it done locally, and she returned home the next day. After completing 36 sessions of cardiac rehab, Mary is back teaching full-time, plans to return to diving, and is grateful for the support of her entire care team.

Loving God, as we welcome the Lenten season with Ash Wednesday, we gather before you as a community of faith. May this Lenten journey be an opportunity to grow deeper in our faith, our love and service to you and for others. We ask your mercy throughout this season of repentance and reconciliation so that we may renew our hearts and walk in the full light of your love.

In honor of Black History Month, we are celebrating our black saints and holy figures like Saint Charles Lwanga. One of the 22 Ugandan martyrs, Saint Charles Lwanga is the patron of youth and Catholic action in much of tropical Africa. In the royal court of Uganda, he courageously protected fellow young pages from immoral demands and strengthened them in their faith during imprisonment. Baptized shortly before his death, Charles inspired others to remain faithful and steadfast. He was martyred by burning on June 3, 1886, and his legacy continues to inspire courage, purity and devotion among generations of believers.

Congratulations to our Team DAISY Award recipients, recognized for extraordinary teamwork, compassion and clinical excellence in caring for a high-risk patient. This nomination highlights an exceptional example of interdisciplinary collaboration, with nurses, physicians, anesthesia, cardiology, perioperative teams and support staff working together to ensure the safest possible outcome for both mother and baby.

We recently celebrated our 100th Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) milestone—a significant achievement for our cardiovascular team and the patients we serve. Dr. Brannon Hyde, Dr. Rahul Bose, and Dr. Jamison Wyatt work together to deliver this advanced, minimally invasive heart care.

A TAVR is a minimally invasive procedure that replaces a narrowed aortic valve without open-heart surgery, helping restore blood flow and improve quality of life. This milestone reflects our commitment to improving outcomes for patients who are not ideal candidates for traditional heart valve replacement. Each TAVR procedure represents a life changed and a renewed opportunity for patients to return to the activities they love.
