Packard Children’s was initially just a place where our family’s healthy babies were born. That all changed for us 15 years ago when one of our children was diagnosed with a life-threatening illness. Because of investments that others made before us, our daughter received the life-saving care she needed.
My husband and I can never repay the debt of gratitude that we owe these past donors. We are committed to helping ensure that future patients continue to receive the best possible care.
One of my proudest moments has been when my daughter, the same one who was so ill, gave birth to my beautiful, healthy granddaughter at Packard Children’s. We feel continuously blessed that this hospital is right here in our backyard.
