When 20-year-old Katy began babysitting for a little girl named Ivey in her hometown of Rome, Ga., she never imagined it would lead to a career as a Children’s nurse five years later. Learning to care for Ivey, who was diagnosed with a partial deletion to the q-arm of her 21st chromosome, ignited Katy’s passion for helping kids with unique medical needs. She now drives 80 miles from home every day to work as a nurse in the technology-dependent intensive care unit (TICU) at Children’s, where Ivey was a patient. When asked about the lengthy commute, Katy doesn’t bat an eye. “What’s a silly two-hour drive if I get to do what I love!” 💚

Reunited and it feels so good! While Arizona Cardinals linebacker Owen Pappoe was in town, he pulled off the surprise of the century, putting the biggest smile on the face of Dr. Cliff Willimon, a Children’s pediatric orthopedic surgeon. Dr. Willimon performed surgery on Owen’s hip impingement and a labral tear seven years ago. Following his recovery, Owen returned to the football field just three months later, earned a scholarship to play football at Auburn and now is in the NFL.

Last week, Children’s, the City of Atlanta Parks and Recreation department, the YMCA of Metropolitan Atlanta and the American Red Cross of Georgia joined together for the Atlanta Water Safety Coalition’s World's Largest Swim Lesson. The nationwide event raises awareness about the importance of teaching kids how to swim. Drowning is the leading cause of death in kids ages 1 through 4. This summer, and all year round, we’re committed to helping kids splash safely. Remember: Eye's reach. Arm's reach. Always.

After a diagnosis of aplastic anemia, a rare blood disorder, Taylor came to our Aflac Cancer and Blood Disorders Center for a bone marrow transplant. Through the ups and downs of her treatment and recovery, Taylor found herself looking forward to visits from her music therapist, Laura. Music was more than a distraction – it became a source of healing and inspiration for Taylor. With the help of Make-A-Wish Georgia, Taylor will be donating new musical instrument to Arthur M. Blank Hospital to give back to our music therapy program and bring hope and joy to other kids like her.
