Radiothon and Hospital Visit

What an enriching day I had today at MU Children's Hospital. I spent the morning working with the local Radiothon by answering phones for the 4 Zimmer Radio Group radio stations that were onsite promoting the radiothon. Many miracle children were on hand with their parents telling their stories about what MU Childrens' Hospital has done to help their family. It was so great meeting so many people that work right here in my own community helping children and families in need. The hospital was such a warm and welcoming place to these kids and all of the staff seemed to be like family to them.

In the afternoon, I had the opportunity to visit children that were admitted to the hospital. I saw children as young as 2 years old up through 17 years old. It was so humbling to speak with them and bring a little sunshine to their day as a special visitor. Thank you to MU Children's Hospital staff for having me and for everything you do for our community! The Radiothon raised more than $226,000 in the past 2 days for this great organization! Thank you for your support.
