Childhood and adolescence can be challenging times, especially when children have problems with mood, paying attention or face difficulties at home or school. If problems are not treated, children can develop low self-esteem, perform poorly at school, have trouble with relationships or struggle to reach their potential.
Cystic Fibrosis
At the request of Toby’s pediatrician, Carrie started a thorough log of Toby’s eating. Toby was referred to a gastrointestinal specialist, and that’s when doctors zeroed in on a diagnosis. “For confirmation, we were sent to Children’s of Alabama for a sweat test and blood test,” Carrie said. “That’s when we got the official diagnosis of cystic fibrosis.”
Cleft Lip and Palate
Before Chris and Leigh Ann Hillman adopted their two children, Maggie and Miles, they knew Children’s of Alabama would play an important role in their lives. In fact, they met with doctors at Children’s Adoption Clinic and Cleft and Craniofacial Center well before the children came home. Maggie and Miles, both born in China, would need multiple surgeries – Maggie for a cleft lip and palate and ear tube placement, and Miles for a cleft palate and ear tube placement.
If your child is a picky eater and you have concerns about whether they are getting enough variety in their diet, Jackson recommends talking to your child’s pediatrician about their nutrition. In this case she says a multi-vitamin may do the trick. Watch video.
