“And so it was in the middle of the night on Sept. 2 that Lenore Cassidy, the doting mom of two boys and an animal lover, was sitting in its locked nursing station when a patient knocked on the door.”
“He (patient) clamped his hands around Cassidy’s (ER nurse) neck, choking her in an iron grip. Cassidy gasped for air, her eyes bulging in fear. Her hair, which had been done up in a ponytail, tumbled loose across her face.”
“The PAB switched tactics, pushing him away from Cassidy. He retaliated by grabbing Proulx’s mouth and scratching her face. He leaned in to bite her, too, but she swerved away, though he did manage to strike her in the stomach.”
“Were it not for another ER orderly who just happened to be strolling by on his break, Cassidy might not have survived.”
