'What you do every day really is lifesaving'

Posted on Monday, January 27, 2020 11:26 AM

Danielle, a CHEO grad from the Eating Disorders program, sent this message to Drs. Norris and Roscoe through our website. It is reproduced here with her permission. Thank you for sharing this happy news with us, Danielle.

James and Griffin

Posted on Thursday, January 16, 2020 02:56 PM

When twins James and Griffin were born at 31 weeks, they weighed a combined five pounds. From day one, CHEO has played a big role in helping both boys live their best lives — first by monitoring their progress through the neonatal unit and most recently through CHEO’s autism program.

Baby James at CHEOGriffin and James were diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) at age three, a diagnosis their mom credits to the keen oversight of CHEO’s neonatal unit.  

“We were so busy with raising twins that there were...

Math whiz Max

“Have a good day, Max,” says Yen as she sends her nine-year-old son Max off to school. 

“You too, mommy,” responds Max.

After Max was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, Yen has learned to appreciate the little things, including these school morning exchanges.   

“When we first started at CHEO’s autism program Max couldn’t communicate and had very little comprehension,” Yen said. “The two years of IBI therapy were such a key factor in his development and we’ve seen so much progress.”
