Bear is 2!
I am participating in Walk for Children’s 2022 presented by UPMC and UPMC Health Plan because I want to make a difference for sick kids and their families.
For those who don't know our son Bear was born at 32 weeks and today February 17th is turning 2 years old. He spent some time in Magee's NICU his first touch point within the UPMC system.
Since then we have been in and out of UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, including emergency room visits, CCP offices, and our Ear Nose and Throat team.
Bear has received care including over 11 clinic visits, 4 ED visits, 5 stitches, and 2 surgeries. When he walks in to Children’s he knows he will receive great care and a cake pop from Starbucks.
Every visit to Children's has been difficult to say the least and every time our team has been amazing, patient and kind. We are going to walk for Bear and to hopefully reach our goal to help other families.
Big thank you to:
Our families Holders, McBrydes, Carters, & Walmsley-Carters
