Kawasaki Disease Day- Jan 26th

Time for my annual Kawasaki Disease Awareness Day reminder.   

Long story short:  very rare disease (19 out of every 100,000 kids), origin unknown, can be treated successfully but it must be caught within a 10-day window to reduces chances of coronary aneurysms.  My little dude came down with it when he was 3 year old, it was a bumpy couple years but we've got things under control now thanks to the awesome team at Lucile Packards Childrens Hospital.  I'm happy to say he's top in his class, a rockstar on the soccer field, and took 3rd in the Junior Angler of the Year last year....and gunning for the #1 slot this year!

So glad he is doing better!!!!!

 

Thanks for sharing the information for all of us as well!!!

 

Sincerely,

Jim

ps...LPCH rocks!!! 

Good to hear that he is a happy little fisherman 😊, that is a nasty disease for sure.
