‘Thank you for letting a little girl grow up’ – Kate’s story

Posted on Thursday, September 16, 2021 10:05 AM

We recently received this heartwarming story from Kate. Now a happily married mother of two, Kate has never forgotten the day her life changed forever and the role CHEO played in helping her live her #BestLife. 

 

It was September 25th, 1993. I was four years old when I was in a serious motor vehicle accident just outside Perth, Ontario. I was stabilized in Perth before I was flown to CHEO.

Leader Rounding — it’s about making connections

Posted on Wednesday, September 15, 2021 02:14 PM

Leader rounding – it’s about making connections

All health care organizations value feedback.  At CHEO it’s one of the ways we ensure we achieve our vision of providing the best life for every child and youth. For families with sick children who spend a great deal of time at CHEO, their time is a valued commodity and filling out surveys isn’t always top of mind.

“Chris felt seen as a person": the power of gender-affirming care

Posted on Monday, August 23, 2021 08:24 AM

At CHEO, providing gender-affirming care by making sure that every child, youth and caregiver is referred to with their preferred name and pronouns is one more way we can help every child and youth live their best life and be their full, authentic self.

Hear from one family, who...

Logan blows bubbles

Logan learns his Social ABCs

Posted on Monday, June 28, 2021 02:55 PM

'B' is for bubble — one of Logan's new favourite words! In fact, after participating in CHEO's newly launched Social ABCs program, Logan has a lot of new favourite words.  His mom Tara says she will never get tired listening to him chatter away, since just a few months ago she could barely communicate with her son at all.

Tara, who has two other children, began to worry about Logan's development when he avoided eye contact and remained non-verbal, except for a few words.  At two, his...
