My son was born with a congenital heart defect and Aortic Stenosis. We are awaiting an appointment with Dr. Emani, in hopes that he can perform a heart valve replacement. There is only one pediatric surgeon here in Maine and we want a second opinion. I also feel that Boston Children's Hospital would give him the very best care. I love seeing posts like this, it gives me hope that my son's surgery will be successful. His is pretty severe and he's fully restricted from all physical activity or anything that would increase his heartbeat. We are praying that this surgery will save his life. So happy to hear about Yah'ir, so glad his surgery was successful and he's on the road to recovery ❤️

Looking to determine the cause of respiratory symptoms in children with the lung disease BPD, Boston Children’s is gathering indoor air samples in a child’s home and testing their lungs right there, too. 🫁 It’s part of an extensive research project that could someday lead to targeted treatment for their condition.

The covid19 vaccine, they all got their inmune system fuck up!!!
why did you take so much time from this child, Nadia Frontczak from Poland wanted to live, hug mommy, eat jelly beans after fasting, you took something that you couldn't get back, Time, when you become a doctor you take an oath, you should take a new one before money, it was easy to verify with the foundation, proceeds for the fundraiser, start treatment when there was time and take the rest of the money right after the operation, do you understand that this little one is now lying alone and will never hug her parents again, will not get a goodnight kiss, will not fall over on the playground this is terrible what you did, I hope it comes back to you. #Bostonchildrenhospital- kill Children !!! This is bad People only want money!!!
“I joined the E-Advisors Program to stay connected to BCH, where my son is cared for by the CAIR program. Living in Tennessee, it helps me to feel empowered to support my son’s primary medical team despite living states away. This is such a unique opportunity to serve those who have given my son outstanding care for his complex medical condition, short bowel syndrome.”

The history of cystic fibrosis diagnosis
In 1955, Dr. Harry Shwachman, head of Boston Children’s Cystic Fibrosis Clinic, developed the first practical sweat test to diagnose cystic fibrosis (CF). It involved encasing the patient’s body in a plastic bag to collect sweat, then using the pictured device to measure levels of salt in the sample. Cystic fibrosis causes sweat to be 2-5 times saltier than average. The sweat test allowed for much simpler and earlier diagnosis of CF, crucial to effective treatment. A version of it is still the main diagnostic tool used today.
