Welcome to the Annual Halloween Spooktacular Banner Hop for Special Needs Children!
We're
delighted to join more than 3 dozen other women who have each made at
least one Halloween-themed banner that will be donated to hang in the
room of a medically-fragile child at Pediatric Specialty Care in
Pennsylvania.
Our Hop Hostess (Ellen CardMonkey Jarvis)
works at PSC’s Bucks County site as Admissions Coordinator. The Banner
Hop starts there, so please be sure to circle back to the beginning to
see all of the terrific banners have been made for these very special
children.
Ellen shares this information with us about
Pediatric Specialty Care: “PSC is a very special place where children
stay either long- or short-term, typically after hospitalization. Most
are dependent on ventilators and other technology to survive. Some
have been born too early or with genetic diseases or birth injuries.
Other children suffer injuries later in life that require constant
care later, including brain injuries from trauma or loss of oxygen
(from choking, suffocation or drowning) and spinal cord injuries.
These
children and their families -- and PSC’s staff -- are thrilled to
receive the Halloween banners, to help brighten the season when their
friends and siblings will be out trick-or-treating.”
Here is the 2nd banner we're sending to a child at PSC:
