Today’s Helping Heroes: Shelly and Kendall
At only five months old, Skylar was the youngest patient in the Bone Marrow Transplant Unit. BMT is not a pediatric floor designed specifically for children and families. A BMT room is a typical hospital room until Connor's Heroes arrives! For Skylar's admission, our amazing volunteers decorated her room to make it more playful and more like home. We gave her parents a Connor's Heroes tote bag (with items like a thermometer and warm socks) and Skylar a backpack with all sorts of goodies to make her smile! Special thanks to Shelly Jones, aunt of our Hero Maya, and Kendall Burgess, sidekick to our Hero Mia. Skylar's room was their first time decorating a room on the BMT unit. Didn't they do a great job?
