Dear Friends: As we celebrate a season of transformation milestones, The Children's Hospital of San Antonio remains committed to providing the highest level of care to the children of South Texas and beyond. This issue of Forever First comes packed with tips on nutrition and navigating allergies and other conditions, as well as ideas for making the most of summer-time weather. We're also highlighting another milestone of our campus transformation, with our community attending our celebration. Upgrades and expansions like this transformation, as well as our new Specialty Care Center in La Cantera, mean more children are able to get the quality health care they need while staying close to home. The care we offer at every location is what helps patients like Stephanie Martinez grow up healthy and happy. We're proud of Stephanie's triumph over scoliosis and of the orthopedic team that helped her and her family heal. I know you'll find Stephanie's story as inspiring as we do. Enjoy this issue, and thank you for growing with us. Committed to doing everything for our children, Elias J.
