Santa Maria Sun
March 17 at 1:20 PM ·
Last April, Santa Maria resident Louis Meza was tasked with a harrowing decision: Whether or not to have his wife, Melissa Meza, transferred to an LA County hospital to treat her worsening complications from COVID-19.
The treatment, being placed on an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) machine, was Melissa’s “last hope,” Louis told the Sun nearly a year after he and Melissa first came down with the virus. But the risk, doctors told Louis at the time, was that she might not survive the hospital transfer.
Louis decided to have Melissa transferred, and he’s grateful he did: he said the machine saved Melissa's life. But having to make the terrifying life-or-death decision to transfer her is something he doesn’t wish on anyone. That’s why the Mezas were overjoyed to hear that Marian Regional Medical Center now has an ECMO machine of its own, thanks to generous support from the Mark and Dorothy Smith Family Foundation.
