Before he blacked out, Griggs remembers seeing "Whiskers** as he called Dr. Moscoe, squeezing fluids into him as quickly as he could. "It was a coordinated effort to take care of a critically ill patient," Moscoe said. "He would have died at home if he had not come to the hospital.” Worried nurses knew Griggs had revived when he looked up at them and said, "My mother told me never to trust a brown-eyed woman.” "Then you’re in trouble now!” returned three brown eyed nurses. On the way to the Intensive Care Unit, Griggs quipped, "Thanks alot, Dr. Jay.”

"Griggs is one of the patients that makes emergency medicine satisfying,” said Moscoe. “He was cooperative in a stressful and precarious situation, a real nice buy.”

The week before his encounter with death, Griggs was admitted to the University of Virginia Hospital for tests of a possible stroke. The tests denied a stroke, and he returned to Culpeper on Wednesday.

After being admitted to two hospitals in one week for unrelated illnesses, Griggs said, "I’ll take Culpeper.”

“Everyone at CMH was as nice as they could be to us,” adds a grateful Gladys Griggs.

Sam Griggs' life has changed since going home. He has not had a drink or a cigarette. “I am living a different . life,” he said.
