A little Halloween fun worth looking back on! 🎃💙

Our annual Monster Bash at Peyton Manning Children's Hospital brought plenty of smiles to patients and families with costumes, crafts, movies and some very special visitors!

Blue Indianapolis Colts Mascot stopped by to join the fun, and our furry friends from Paws and Think brought lots of love during a Pet Therapy Parade. 🐾

Thanks to the Foundation for Hospital Art, patients also enjoyed watching a movie while painting their own canvases. And our pediatric teams got creative with costumes inspired by this year's hospital-wide theme: TOYS! 🧸

A huge thank you to the Boldt Family Celebration Station Fund for making this annual tradition possible and to everyone who helped create special memories for our patients and families.

Because even during a hospital stay, kids deserve moments to just be kids. 💙

Meet this week's Indianapolis Colts Kickoff Kid! 💙🏈

Jackson was diagnosed before birth with a lower urinary tract obstruction that severely impacted his kidneys. Born at 36 weeks, he spent 71 days in the NICU and PICU, requiring breathing support, surgery to repair the blockage and dialysis to help his body function.

After going home, Jackson continued dialysis for more than two years while waiting for a transplant. When his mom could no longer donate, his family quickly explored every option and found a match through a paired exchange program.

In October 2022, Jackson received a life-changing kidney transplant. Today, his kidney is doing well, and his quality of life has been transformed.

Now, Jackson enjoys singing on his karaoke machine, building with blocks, playing soccer, and swimming 💙

Congratulations to Alisa on receiving a DAISY Award! 🌼

Alisa’s nomination reminds us that exceptional nursing care goes far beyond medicine. During one family’s most frightening and uncertain ICU experience, Alisa became a source of comfort, strength, and reassurance. From finding creative ways to make the patient feel safe through books, bubbles and play, to guiding her parents through difficult conversations and offering a comforting hug during her first chemotherapy treatment, Alisa cared for the whole family with extraordinary compassion.

She brought calm to frightening moments, dignity to vulnerable ones and a sense of safety to an environment that felt overwhelming. This family shared that Alisa was a “lighthouse” during one of the most difficult times of their lives. 💙

Thank you, Alisa, for being an incredible example of our mission. Congratulations! 🌼

Three months to the day after being admitted—and spending her 13th birthday intubated in our PICU—Emily is officially headed home! 🥳💙

Our PMCH care team traded their usual routine for wigs, leis, bubble blasters and a hallway full of cheers to celebrate her incredible fight against leukemia and her recovery from acute respiratory distress syndrome. In true Emily fashion, she made sure to share her celebration cupcakes right back with the nurses, doctors and staff who walked alongside her every step of the way. 🧁🥹

Emily, your bravery inspires every single one of us, and we’re cheering you on as your journey continues. We are so proud of you and honored to be a part of your journey!

Even in the NICU, there are special moments worth celebrating, and we're so happy these little ones and their families get to make some sweet Halloween memories.

Happy first Halloween to our tiniest pumpkins! 👻💙

Meet this week's Indianapolis Colts Kickoff Kid! 💙🏈

At just 1 year old, Cami was diagnosed with scleroderma, a rare autoimmune disease that changed the course of her childhood. After years of treatments and multiple surgeries, she made the courageous decision at age 7 to undergo an above-the-knee amputation at Peyton Manning Children's Hospital.

Just three months later, Cami was walking with her first prosthetic leg. Today, she's thriving as a varsity volleyball player, a gold medalist with Team USA at the Youth ParaPanAm Games, where she was named both MVP and Best Attacker. Now, she's training with one goal in mind: representing the United States in the Paralympic Games.
