Full Circle
I was once a childrens hospital kid, mainly in the cardiac ward of the hospital. With a few visits to neurology, orthopedics and general surgery. When I embarked on having a baby on my own, I knew it was risky and I also knew I had a higher chance of having a child with medical needs.
Pregnancy went great, Francine was slow to grow but she looked 100% healthy other then being on the smaller side.
Once I delivered her, my aunt kept saying something to the pediatrician in the room (Francine was breach), but it was ignored. It wasn't until she turned blue going to the nursery that she was fully checked over. We were then sent to BCCH were we did a 2 week stay in the NICU and Francine had to have surgery at 3 days old in order for her to live. During this stay there was a few more medical needs that were found. Francine is part of many specialties at Children's Hospital that we see regularly.
I am grateful for BCCH for what they have done for me and Francine. We have done a full circle with Children's between the two of us. And I support them in many ways.
