“I have diabetes and sometimes require specialized treatment for its related complications. Through the years, CHRISTUS St. Vincent Regional Wound and Hyperbaric Center has taken very good care of me. Today, I am enjoying time with family and friends and pursuing several interests -- most often painting, writing, or working with the foundation that I created to help preserve Native American cultural heritage. Now and then, you might also find me in downtown Santa Fe scouting for a good-looking hat.”
