The reason TuaPath exists is because we believe that every person in a benefits program or employment service program can succeed. We believe that it IS possible to overcome challenges, trials and hardships that life throws our way. Today, I want to share about an amazing group of people that believe the same....that they can help overcome hardships trials and challenges that effect families every day. Children's Hospital Colorado and the other hospitals around the country that are part of the Children's Miracle Network. Two years ago, my grandson was born with essentially one half of a heart. An age ago, it would have meant the loss of his life so early on. Instead, the staff at Children's Hospital fought. They fought for his life. And not just my grandson's life, but for the lives of hundreds of children at the Hospital, each and every day. From support and maintenance staff, to assistants, nurses, doctor's and everyone I failed to just list, the entire team at Children's shared their hearts as they fought for these children and supported their families as they struggled. Day after day. Always encouraging, always supporting, and in the dark times, crying with those whose loved ones were lost. For 11 and a half months, my grandson stayed in his room under the watchful care and comfort of this incredible staff. My daughter and son-in-law and their other two children were supported and cared for as their lives had been upended. During the many days and nights that I could stay down their to help, I was a witness to this incredible place filled with incredible people. Today marks 1 year from when my little grandson received a new heart. A heart given by a family whose own hearts had been broken by their loss, but who graciously gave another a chance to live. They gave my grandson that chance. The medical team at Children's took the chance and gave it thier all. So today, I get to celebrate the second chance at life for my grandson. I get to honor and pay my respects to the donor family. I get to thanks each and every employee at Children's for getting him home. So today, I humbly ask that if you would, take a look at the Children's Hospital Colorado and the other members of the Children's Miracle Network. If you want to give a donation to a place that effects and changes lives, then I ask you to consider partnering with them. Every little bit can help them as they fight for the lives of newborns, children and teens who face incredible odds. Every little bit can help this incredible team of people turn challenges and hardships into victories and changed lives. https://lnkd.in/en7TWs5f
