The group chat summary

Caring for a child with ongoing medical needs doesn’t end when an appointment does. In Caring Beyond the Clinic: Supporting Children with Ongoing Medical Needs, Suzie Foger, Rebecca Lockard, and Jodi Klaristenfeld led a powerful, practical conversation about what real support looks like in the space between visits — where families are coordinating care, navigating systems, and carrying the emotional weight of it all.

🧠 Life Between Appointments • Helping children understand what’s happening in their bodies builds confidence and a sense of control • Bedtime questions and quiet moments often surface fears that don’t come up in the clinic
