This is PEDYACAST.

Welcome to Pediacast, a pediatric podcast for parents.

And now, direct from the campus of nationwide children's, here is your host, Dr. Mike.

Hello, everyone, and welcome.

Once again to Pediacast.

It is a pediatric podcast for moms and dads.

This is Dr. Mike, coming to you from nationwide children's hospital.

We're in Columbus, Ohio.

It's episode 487 for April 21st, 2021.

We're calling this one a kid again.

I want to welcome all of you to the program.

So this week, we are going to introduce

you to an organization that strives to give illness a time out by helping families who have

a child with a life-threatening condition, helping them create positive experiences and memories

at an otherwise difficult time. How do they do it? And how can you, the listener, benefit from

their services and or support their efforts? We'll explore the answers to these questions and more

during our time together. And to help us do that, two guests from the organization will join us.

Jennifer Coma is chief operating officer at a kid again at their national headquarters.

And Travis Gulling is executive director of their Central Ohio chapter.

They will be here soon.

But first, I want to share an exciting opportunity for the healthcare professionals in the crowd.

Or anyone in the healthcare industry, really, our annual communicating medicine conference at nationwide children's hospital is on the horizon.
