Jordenjorden came to the emergency room at maria fareri Children's hospital after four days of high fevers and several other symptoms of an illness seen in pediatric patients related to coronavirus infection. Lab tests showed evidence of massive inflammation, so jorden was admitted to the pediatric icu. As his heart function declined, he was placed on a breathing tube and ventilator and, eventually, an ecmo (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation), where all of the blood from the body is passed through an external heart and lung. This guarantees the blood receives sufficient oxygen, allowing jorden's sick heart to rest and recover. After three days on life support, doctors felt that jorden would benefit from a procedure to create a hole in his heart, allowing the heart and lungs to heal faster. He was removed from ecmo the next day, and his heart function improved to normal and after a few days was able to breathe on his own fully. Jorden was sent to rehabilitation to re-learn how to eat and gain strength. Jorden is now at home and doing fantastically.benjaminbenjamin has chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis, a rare disorder that causes immense bone pain. Some days it's difficult for him to walk from his bedroom to the kitchen. This condition causes his body to attack itself and eat holes in his bone marrow. His body's natural reaction of filling the holes with more bone causes the pain. Little is known about the disorder, and there is no cure. At his local member Children's hospital, caregivers closely monitor benjamin and provide treatments to prevent abnormal bone growth and relieve his pain. When benjamin was younger, child life specialists, whose vital care is funded by donations to Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, helped benjamin learn about his condition and provided him comfort during treatment. Benjamin will live with this condition his whole life, but thanks to his care team, he can manage his pain and live normally: attending high school, participating in boy scouts, swimming regularly, and caring for his family's chickens.about the networkas an umbrella organization for 170 Children's Hospitals, Children's Miracle Network Hospitals provides comprehensive education, support, information and resources to its Network for raising funds, creating awareness and public education programs for Children's healthcare needs and the important work of the Hospitals caring for them.
