费斯 博贺
10岁在8岁时,费斯的肿瘤开始再次增长,而更多的化疗是必要的。当费斯的母亲,卡伦,告诉她,她很后悔,他们不得不回到医院,费斯的答复表明孩子的生活专家到底有多少对她意味着。 “没关系,妈妈。我不介意回去。我想念我的朋友。“
Faith Bohrer
AGE 10
NEUROFIBROMATOSIS
CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL OF THE KING’S DAUGHTERS, Norfolk, Va.
Faith was diagnosed with neurofibromatosis at age 5. Doctors discovered an inoperable brain tumor on her optic nerve that required 60 weeks of chemotherapy. Child life specialists, whose positions are funded through CMN Hospitals donations, significantly brightened Faith’s long hours of treatment. These child development experts focused on keeping Faith’s life as child-friendly as possible, through play and self-expression activities that encourage normal development, education and just plain fun.
At age 8, Faith’s tumor began growing again, and more chemotherapy was necessary. When Faith’s mother, Karen, told her she was sorry they’d have to return to the hospital, Faith’s reply indicates just how much child life specialists meant to her. “That’s OK, Mommy. I don’t mind going back. I miss my friends there.”
