"Lurie's," is state-of-the-art and THE hospital for the Midwest. In fact, it is the only hospital in Illinois and for other nearby states which performs life-saving heart transplants.
This afternoon I, along with the Miss and Teen Illinois International Director Jennifer, spent the day at Lurie's. We played with little ones who are patients and family members those being treated there. One such family was there as a newborn has just received a new heart and was doing very well!
Jennifer read a message about a very brave 14-year old who wanted us to visit. She was in critical condition as doctor tried to figure out why a sudden onset of encephalitis continued. I am so glad they allowed us to visit with her.She is Miss Teen Neoga has the prettiest color of red hair. Her father asked us to visit again soon when she is able to talk. You can follow her journey on Facebook, through Prayers for Morgan Miller. A big Thank you to Jessica and Lurie Children's Hospital. Many times the children we serve through CASA have found themselves in a hospital like Lurie's. It's great to know how well they are taken care of.
