Tyler's Story
Tyler was diagnosed with cancer on his third b-day and had chemo and radiation therapy. The therapy worked and Tyler's tumor was removed.

With all of the chemo and radiation he got heart failure and kidney failure. We were in PICU for three-and-a-half months and a miracle happened. His heart doctor, Charlie Baker, did not give up on Tyler and neither did any of the Children's doctors. They were bound and determined to save our son.

He is almost ten now and his heart will never be like it should but the heart meds he is on are helping. We owe our son's life to the doctors at Children's. They are truly life savers and we would trust them no matter what the condition.
