00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:12.280
You

2
00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:30.020
You

3
00:00:52.820 --> 00:00:55.840
These are the children for whom we care

4
00:00:57.420 --> 00:00:59.300
They come to us from all over

5
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:02.000
Billy Joe came from North Carolina

6
00:01:05.020 --> 00:01:10.740
Celeste from Paris others from Mexico Venezuela Chile

7
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:14.240
Most of them from our mammoth city

8
00:01:19.060 --> 00:01:24.880
All together more than 25,000 of them in just one year

9
00:01:27.800 --> 00:01:29.520
8,000 slept in our beds

10
00:01:32.660 --> 00:01:34.640
Two-thirds of them came to our clinics

11
00:01:40.540 --> 00:01:42.360
All of them were treated

12
00:01:42.360 --> 00:01:42.360


13
00:01:58.440 --> 00:02:01.720
More than 50 a day came to our emergency room

14
00:02:07.740 --> 00:02:10.960
Some had illnesses that responded to medicine

15
00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:12.360


16
00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:29.120
Elizabeth has leukemia the road she travels has its limits now tomorrow may be brighter

17
00:02:31.620 --> 00:02:33.920
Some are battered

18
00:02:35.940 --> 00:02:37.520
Some are brave

19
00:02:44.200 --> 00:02:48.560
Many had surgery more than 5,000

20
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:18.820
Bones had to mend

21
00:03:20.300 --> 00:03:23.900
Some worked hard at getting better

22
00:03:24.880 --> 00:03:27.780
Encouragement is our way of life

23
00:03:31.820 --> 00:03:36.280
Others try and fail and try again

24
00:03:37.780 --> 00:03:39.820
But know the day will come

25
00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:49.140
A

26
00:03:49.140 --> 00:03:54.560
Mother must be taught to change addressing measure insulin supervised exercise

27
00:03:55.880 --> 00:03:59.440
There's the gargantuan task of dealing with reality

28
00:04:20.060 --> 00:04:20.520
You

29
00:04:29.100 --> 00:04:33.820
How do you tell a parent you don't know what's wrong

30
00:04:34.420 --> 00:04:39.800
Harder still how do you tell them when you do know and there's nothing can be done

31
00:04:44.640 --> 00:04:45.280
You

32
00:04:45.280 --> 00:05:01.260
Can you keep a child from knowing

33
00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:21.240
You

34
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:28.260
The language of life is no foreign tongue it speaks early the problem comes in trying to understand it

35
00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:31.920
Here is a new life

36
00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:34.060
How will it grow?

37
00:05:34.060 --> 00:05:41.300
Prick his heel he can spare that drop of blood it might make the difference between being and living

38
00:05:41.980 --> 00:05:44.280
Between a burden and a boy

39
00:05:45.500 --> 00:05:48.920
There is research that helps us understand the newborn

40
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:52.560
This is the research that concerns the living

41
00:05:53.180 --> 00:05:57.900
What is normal what isn't when it isn't why isn't it?

42
00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:00.680
What do we do about it?

43
00:06:00.900 --> 00:06:03.020
Can we treat it with what?

44
00:06:03.020 --> 00:06:04.620
How much

45
00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:11.740
Doctors working in the genetics laboratory study the chromosomes from a newborn

46
00:06:12.380 --> 00:06:18.820
Just one slight deviation in the genes and the baby is doomed to a life of mental inadequacy

47
00:06:19.960 --> 00:06:26.020
But watch the diet eliminate the offending amino acid change a life

48
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:30.940
What if it's more than a chromosome off-balance

49
00:06:31.660 --> 00:06:40.380
Can it be determined before birth is there a way to surgically correct malfunctioning organs before arrival

50
00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:47.320
Yes, there may be a point in time when all children may be born whole and hail

51
00:06:47.860 --> 00:06:54.620
When routine prenatal tests reveal discrepancies that can be corrected even prior to birth

52
00:06:55.940 --> 00:07:00.460
Here at children's we look for answers

53
00:07:04.660 --> 00:07:06.060
a

54
00:07:06.060 --> 00:07:13.820
Fear is real the panic acute

55
00:07:17.520 --> 00:07:19.940
Relief is joyous

56
00:07:30.940 --> 00:07:30.940


57
00:07:41.620 --> 00:07:45.860
Jimmy had two kidney transplants neither was successful

58
00:07:47.140 --> 00:07:50.660
But Jimmy keeps hoping and we keep working

59
00:07:55.340 --> 00:08:00.320
Children are born with heart disease others develop it

60
00:08:01.740 --> 00:08:05.500
Today treatment can restore health to many

61
00:08:12.940 --> 00:08:15.460
Arthritis is not confined to later years

62
00:08:19.500 --> 00:08:22.660
The world cannot always adjust to the child

63
00:08:23.220 --> 00:08:25.420
He must make his peace with himself

64
00:08:26.100 --> 00:08:28.240
Before he can take his place among others

65
00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:34.060
The brain damaged are not pariahs to be confined to snake pits or closets

66
00:08:34.720 --> 00:08:40.460
But what happens when you know the brain is damaged so severely he will never learn to walk

67
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:53.300
Or when you know, it's a malignant non-operable tumor a

68
00:08:53.300 --> 00:08:55.980
Hospital is a place to learn

69
00:08:56.660 --> 00:09:00.380
The medical student realizes he still has lots to learn

70
00:09:00.380 --> 00:09:02.340
He must be shown

71
00:09:02.340 --> 00:09:04.240
guided inspired

72
00:09:05.340 --> 00:09:14.120
Something subtle and very wonderful transpires when physicians teach and students learn within the confines of a hospital

73
00:09:14.700 --> 00:09:18.340
There is an inherent need for the more penetrating look

74
00:09:18.340 --> 00:09:20.580
more careful appraisal

75
00:09:21.260 --> 00:09:25.320
They learn the difference between patient and case

76
00:09:25.900 --> 00:09:32.900
Between the sick child who is the person and the child who is merely host to the disease

77
00:09:33.660 --> 00:09:37.760
they learn for whom we care and

78
00:09:37.760 --> 00:09:39.700
the ways in which we care

79
00:09:39.700 --> 00:09:41.900
the ways of concern of

80
00:09:42.800 --> 00:09:46.900
involvement of respect for the youngster and

81
00:09:46.900 --> 00:09:48.160
empathy for the parent

82
00:09:49.540 --> 00:09:55.220
The resident must make a fast decision the hospital must respond

83
00:09:56.960 --> 00:10:03.700
The nurse must be taught she must be guided she must learn to assess

84
00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:06.480
She must want to care

85
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:15.800
A hospital can be a happy place

86
00:10:37.920 --> 00:10:40.720
A wonderland

87
00:10:44.100 --> 00:10:45.680
A wonderland

88
00:10:45.680 --> 00:10:46.480
A place to grow

89
00:11:06.600 --> 00:11:08.000
and

90
00:11:08.000 --> 00:11:11.120
Think about what's next

91
00:11:15.500 --> 00:11:18.780
These then are for whom we care

92
00:11:19.540 --> 00:11:24.860
Yes more than 25,000 children in just one year

93
00:11:24.860 --> 00:11:29.400
For about one-third of them the care is given free

94
00:11:29.400 --> 00:11:33.340
Not free of love not free of concern

95
00:11:33.340 --> 00:11:35.260
Not free of despair

96
00:11:36.140 --> 00:11:38.320
Just free of cost

97
00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:40.920
Given free for only one reason

98
00:11:41.740 --> 00:11:43.700
They needed help

99
00:11:45.560 --> 00:11:49.440
The cost to the hospital is roughly one and a half million dollars

100
00:11:50.620 --> 00:11:52.660
Dollars that have to come from somewhere

101
00:11:53.780 --> 00:11:55.580
from people who care

102
00:11:56.360 --> 00:11:58.320
from people like you

103
00:12:13.180 --> 00:12:14.580
You
