Featured Story
Meet James
For James and his family, St. Mary’s Hospital for Children has been their lifeline. James is a 4-year-old boy who came to St. Mary’s with Apert’s Syndrome, a genetic diagnosis characterized by skeletal abnormalities. His complex medical condition has required advanced pediatric care far more complicated than his family can provide at home.
