Sidekicks & Superheros- More than medical

It’s been an honor getting to know Gina more through the UMASS Sidekick program! As a medical student at UMASS and my son’s Sidekick she’s now a vital member of our team! 💝

The friendship we’ve formed with her is so special! She’s always there to listen! She’s my extra arms when I can find something in our clinic bag! 🐙

She’ll play cars and trucks with my son hours on end! 🚗

He loves playing with her whether at clinic or at Sherry’s House aka “The Big Mickey House!”

How do you bond with your medical team? What are some ways you and you child feel supported? Emotionally? Physically?
