“It was a life or death... that was our life and we rose to the occasion.”

Katie, Certified Child Life Specialist talks with Laurie Strongin from Hope for Henry.

We talk about:

+How parenthood started out with hearing the news no parent wants to hear

+How Laurie’s growing family lived out of hotels and Ronald McDonald Homes for years

+The impact her first born’s death has had on his siblings

+How the first birthday without a “birthday boy” sparked a mission that has reached over 55,000 children in hospitals.
