Why We Walk

“My greatest hope is that my son will continue to get stronger and be able to walk more independently. The team at CSH is so amazing. They’re willing to do anything they can to help these kids. The progress Nikos has made is just incredible.”

— Nicole

“After my brain surgery, I just wanted to go home. I didn’t want to go to another hospital. But once I started therapy at CSH and started to regain movement on my left side I was so happy to be there. Everyone was so nice and they helped me so much. I don’t know where I would be today without Children’s Specialized.”

— Gabby

“When I first learned about my son’s diagnosis, I was overwhelmed and concerned. After going through all the doctors, neurologists and an MRI, we landed at CSH. From there on, we felt like we could exhale. I’m very glad to have found a team at CSH that we can trust.”

— Emeline

“We just want our daughter to live a happy life. Every child is unique and Children’s Specialized Hospital doesn’t count Nyla out because of what she won’t be able to do statistically. They never let the impossibilities of her disability stop her.”

— Nelson & Genesis

“Your life can change in the blink of an eye. My care team at CSH was definitely a team of angels in disguise. They never gave up on me, even when I would lash out. They were the ones who stuck it out with me.”

— Isaac

“If Callie had not received personalized care at CSH, I don’t know where she would be today. That moment changed everything for me. She didn’t walk, she ran down the hall. Seeing her have that independence was one of the best moments for her and for me.”

— Amanda

“We’ve tried other places but we’re not going to go anywhere else. CSH has become our trusted partner in navigating primary care and therapy needs for Zach. Children’s Specialized has given us community and peace of mind.”

— Hugh & Lena

“Children’s Specialized Hospital gave me my life back. The doctors, nurses and therapists challenged and encouraged me every step of the way. They didn’t let me give up. Today, I’m studying to be a physician assistant because I want to give back to kids that need help like I did.”
