Throughout this experience so many wonderful people at Texas Children’s Hospital (TCH) Pavilion for Women cared for our family and touched our lives with the love they showed for our daughters. Although we didn’t get the happy ending we’d hoped for, it was a privilege to see the passion and commitment they have for the work they do. We are forever grateful to everyone who gave their time, expertise and compassion to our family and want to recognize them by name.
We are amazed by this group whose mission is “Giving Life to Possible” in providing life-saving intervention for babies before birth. These doctors spent hours working with us and discussing treatment options as a team to determine the best care for our girls. The one-on-one care was truly amazing and they made themselves personally available to us at all hours of the day and night. Words can’t describe the gratitude and admiration I feel for the work they do and we were so touched by how they shared in our grief. After delivery they came to visit our family and we shared a special moment with Dr. Espinoza as he held our two little girls that they’d fought so hard to save. The work they do is awe-inspiring.
