Ben Cayer and Mindy Brock share a home, a profession and, now, a mission
etween surgeries one stressful morning, Ben Cayer and Mindy Brock — husband and wife, and fellow nurse anesthetists — peered through layers of protective gear, and locked eyes.Now the image, shared on social media, is inspiring people around the globe.
Brock, 38, adds: “What’s important is that we stick together, we work together, and we always support each other. And not just Ben and I, but the human race right now.” They didn’t think twice about volunteering for Tampa General Hospital’s new “airway team,” Cayer says. Their patients have been in car crashes, or needed brain surgery because of a ruptured blood vessel. As is the case at many U.S. hospitals, only emergency surgeries continue at the Tampa hospital, to make room as the pandemic continues to crest.
