Sharing StoriesThere’s the story, and there are the stories behind the story. By reading about our members’ experiences, you can learn how we partner with others in the community to make their lives better. For instance, read the story of 52-year-old Dane County Partnership member Cheryl Depp who was diagnosed with primary pulmonary hypertension and thought her life was over. Cheryl credits her RN Tammy Coplien and the rest of her care team with not only saving her life, but greatly improving the quality of it.
