C∙U∙D Testimonials:

"I am so grateful to Children’s hospital. They not only saved my daughter’s life but have taught her how to live with her chronic illness with grace and courage. They encouraged her (and me) to ask questions and made a frightening experience so much better with their teams of dedicated physicians, nurses, CNAs and child life specialists. I will be forever grateful to this wonderful place!" - Ellen D.

"My brother spent his childhood in and out of Children’s Hospital. It was there that he was treated for his Muscular Dystrophy and an unknown rare form of Charcot Marie Tooth Disorder. They cared for him and provided whatever he needed to help with his day-to-day struggles. They are attentive, caring, and compassionate. Children’s’ always went above and beyond to find out what was wrong with my brother." - Samantha M.

"Children’s hospital cared for my son for 13 days when his appendix burst at 2 years old. He was in serious condition and had to have emergency surgery. During our stay at the hospital, the staff was great and provided lots of toys to keep him entertained. Eventually we began going on small walks through the halls until he recovered and was cleared to go home. I am so glad that Children’s Hospital was there for us during this trying time."
