A new resource for Vent Kids Photos!

December 17th, 2008

Rachael Wiginton has supplied me with a link to her photos from our 2007 Summer Camp.

Here it is:

I think she will be getting some photos from last week’s Christmas party up sometime soon.

I’ve also put a permanent link in the sidebar so we can always find these.

Thanks, Rachael!

Vent Kids Support Group Meetings

July 18th, 2008

Hi Everyone,

Vent Kids of Alabama has joined forced with Childrens Harbor Family Center to sponsor Vent Kids Support Group Meetings. 

The meetings will be held the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of every month at 3pm at the Children’s Harbor Family Center.  The Harbor Family Center is located across the crosswalk from the hospital on the 2nd Floor.  Tell the receptionist you are here for the Vent Kids meeting and she will direct you to the correct room.

                     **1st & 3rd TUESDAY OF EVERY MONTH AT 3PM**

This is a great time for parents to get together and share ideas, concerns or just hang out.  Our new families who are currently in the hospital will greatly benefit from meeting some “veteran” parents.  Please plan to attend as often as possible. 

If you have any questions you may call Kara Bishop at 205-370-9605 or email karabishop@ventkidsofalabama.com

First Post!

November 21st, 2007

Hello, everyone!

As you are no doubt aware, the Vent Kids site has not been updated in quite a while. I’m switching the front end to a blog format in the hopes that this will enable us to have more frequent and timely information on the site.

The old site is still available and I’ll link to it in the sidebar. Let me know if you have any ideas to help make the site more user friendly. Thanks,

Chris
