Testimonials
It is with great sadness that we share that we said goodbye to Nicky on Friday evening, September 4th in Bradenton, Florida. He is now running around freely with Holly and Kringle.
Jane and I would like to express our deepest gratitude to you and the entire Mohnacky team for the incredible love and care you have provided to all of them over the years. We are especially thankful for your dedicated support during Nicky’s recent health struggles—from managing his tracheal issue and cough to providing his regular cold laser therapy, acupuncture sessions, and Adequan shots.
Even with all his treatments, Nicky always looked forward to his visits. Whenever we leave the house, we say, “let’s go pasyal,” which means a fun and leisurely outing in Tagalog. Hearing that word, his eyes would light up and he would start jumping up and down. He truly enjoyed driving around and sightseeing in the car, and that is exactly what going to the hospital felt like to him most times. Your specialized care and compassion gave us more comfort and time with him, and it has meant the world to us.
With love and gratitude,
Jane and Dell
