Please consider becomming a foster parent, the children need our help.

children's was my second home as a child. thank you for making the worst situations a little easier. i had a brain tumor removed when i was 4 years old by dr. tomita and i also had papalomas on my vocal cords which had to be surgically lazered off every 2-3 months from the age of 2 untill i was 12 by dr. hollenger. tho...se 2 dr.'s are the best at what they do. as are all the other staff at children's. i work at a day care and a girl that goes to my day care also had a brain tumor removed by dr. tomita when she was 4 years old. it was an insane coincidence, but i feel blessed to have met this little girl and her family. thank you children's memorial!Read More

Jennifer Hege Myers This Sunday, October 4th, will be seven years since Dr. Carl Backer opened up my 17-day-old daughter's chest, took out her heart, repaired it and re-implanted it, saving her life. Today she is newly seven-years-old, in second grade, plays soccer and wants to learn to play drums. I am grateful every day for this hospital and the amazing people who go to work there and save lives every single day!
