Conversations that heal and confirm . . .

In all of the stress and craziness of planning for the HPE conference, some very good things have come out of it.  Today, I talked on the phone with seven different HPE moms representing the states of Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, South Dakota, and Oklahoma.  I love talking with my HPE peeps!  In planning for the conference, I also have had the opportunity to talk with several of Sammy’s doctors who are involved in the conference in various capacities.  A lot of pediatric medical facilities use the phrase “family-centered care”, and often times, it’s nothing more than a marketing phrase.  Today’s conversations with Sammy’s physicians reminded me once again about what a great medical team we had caring for our son and the lasting bonds we have formed with them.
