Emily is so excited to begin her 8th year as a patient partner on the Boston Children's Hospital Miles for Miracles marathon team! She was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease in August 2016 when she was 9 years old. We are so grateful that we live so close to Boston Children's Hospital, the #1 pediatric hospital in the country! The doctors here are top-notch, pioneering research and advancements in so many areas. In addition to amazing doctors, everyone from the infusion center staff where she gets her treatments to the inpatient nurses and child life specialists does such a wonderful job caring for sick kids. After many missed days of school, medications, procedures and hospitalizations, Emily has been doing great for the past 6 years thanks to the hard work of everyone at BCH! We want to continue to raise money to help give all sick kids there the same opportunity for a healthy life that Emily has been given.
Please consider making a donation to help BCH continue its lifesaving work for Emily and so many other children. Thank you!
