At Sanford Children’s you’ll find some of the most innovative, child-friendly hospitals and clinics available in pediatric care today. Our passion for medicine and leadership drives our clinical care, research, advocacy and education. Our leading children’s specialists and staff know the power of reaching beyond limitations to ensure that every child has the expert care and services they need. Together, we believe we can create a world where illness and injury never define a child’s sense of self, never inhibit a sense of wonder and hope. A world where play is a vital part of healing. Children are at the heart of everything we do. It’s why we’re here. For every child. Every step of the way.

Every year, we identify a child with a remarkable medical story from each state. These “Champions” serve as the face for the millions of children treated at our hospitals every year. Our Champions and their families travel to Washington, D.C., and Orlando, Fla. each year to highlight the vital work of children’s hospitals.

Cylie' cancer is called Osteosarcoma. She will start chemo 8/8/06 at St Mary's Hospital in Rochester and will need to stay for 2-3 days. She will then get 2 weeks off and we hope to get the next treatment at Sioux Valley. Each time she will need to be hospitalized for about 3 days. Tentatively leg surgery would be on week 11.
