(WBEN) Niagara Falls Memorial Center on Saturday celebrated another miraculous discharge of a long-term COVID-19 patient.
Francine Shelton received an emotional and exhilarated ovation as she was discharged after a 43 day stay at Memorial, most of which was spent on a ventilator in the intensive care unit.
Nurses exclaimed that divine intervention and hard work contributed to Shelton's recovery, which was additionally challenging due to pre-existing conditions.
Respiratory therapists, nurses, and other members of the Memorial team gathered as Shelton's husband joyfully escorted her out to continue her recovery at home.
