For some reason, Mercy Hospital in far Northwest Oklahoma City has always given me the heebie jeebies. I not 100% sure why, but I think it may have something to do with my irrational fear of the Kilpatrick Turnpike, nuns and / or that the gigantic revolving cross on top of the hospital always seems to be following me. It could also be that I possibly owe them money. Who knows.
Last week, the hospital had a groundbreaking for their new $69-million cancer center. It's named after Sister Mary Coletta Massoth, who 40 years ago moved Mercy from downtown OKC to the outskirts of the outskirts of the outskirts of Oklahoma City. She died in 1983.
