Your support delivers lifesaving care and cures at Boston Children's, the world's leading pediatric research hospital and the place that has saved millions of young lives.
You help kids like Kole
Kole was a micro-preemie, born four months early at another local hospital. He weighed only 1 lb., 9 oz., but he was ready to fight to live. A Boston Children's team of pulmonary specialists was immediately called in to help. Medication closed a small hole between the chambers in Kole's heart, but he still struggled to breathe.
At 4 months old, Kole was transferred to Boston Children's for two surgeries that changed everything. First, he received a feeding tube for extra nutritional support and then a tracheotomy tube was placed to take the pressure off his underdeveloped lungs. The results were dramatic—Kole began to grow and play. Now 2, he is thriving and his family looks forward to the day he can breathe without his trach.
Thanks to you, kids like Kole can find lifesaving answers at Boston Children's.
