Honestly, I had never heard of one before I started contacting hospital gift shops about Kare’n Cards. When I talked about them with other people, most had a blank look on their face and questioned, “Who?”
The mysterious individuals I’m talking about are Child Life Specialists. Child Life Specialists help children and their families cope and live with a serious even life threatening illness.
The first one I met was amazing.
The five hundredth one I met was amazing.
The one thousand one hundred and ninety seventh was amazing.
I think you get my point:
Child Life Specialists are amazing.
Next week I’m going to share some of their stories. If you know one or are one, I invite you to join the conversation and be a storyteller on this blog.
