I am hosting a fundraiser in honor of Luca Schneider, 28 months old. His diagnoses include gastroparesis or in a broader range stomach & intestinal motility disorder.  He has atelectasis of the right lower lung and hypoxemia.  Luca's family was most recently informed he is having problems with one kidney and will be at Boston Children's Hospital, investigating the cause and severity of this latest medical issue in April.

  Boston Children's Hospital does amazing work

• The hospital's patient care programs are remarkably sensitive to what sick and injured children and their families really need.
• Researchers regularly make amazing discoveries that change children's lives.
• Boston Children's welcomes kids whose families can't afford health care—more than any other hospital in Massachusetts.
• Community programs make a point of reaching out to help low-income and at-risk kids.

And the hospital doesn't just stop there. Boston Children's truly understands the importance of training the next generation of top pediatricians and nurses, so they can continue to provide the best, most innovative care possible to kids.

Please support my fundraiser—and Boston Children’s Hospital.
