grateful families
“I thank God every day that this hospital is here,” said Paul Neef, father of patient Amanda Neef. “I knew I could bring my son here when he broke his arm, but I never dreamed I would be back a few months later with my daughter to have emergency brain surgery.Even though what happened to Amanda was incredibly rare, Dr. Lober was able to look me in the eye and say ‘I have operated on thousands of children’s brains,’ and that’s when I knew Amanda was receiving world-class care.”
For families like Amanda’s, grateful doesn’t even begin to describe how they feel about the care that they received at Dayton Children’s. When your child is in the hospital your whole world is impacted and knowing that they are receiving care that goes above and beyond makes all the difference. Dayton Children’s grateful families program gives you the chance to say “thanks” by supporting the hospital. This could be in honor of a specific doctor or nurse or even a special program that made a difference for your family such as child life. Whatever the gift, we are grateful to you for showing your gratitude to our amazing team in this way.
