From before he was born, Caleb faced impossible odds. A severe urinary blockage discovered during his mother’s ultrasound threatened his life before it even began. At Cincinnati Children's, a team of dedicated doctors and nurses performed life-saving fetal surgery — giving Caleb a fighting chance.
Years later, when kidney failure struck, that same spirit of care and compassion surrounded Caleb once again. At just five years old, he received a kidney transplant, thanks to the generosity of a donor from Alabama and the expert hands of Cincinnati Children's transplant team.
Today, Caleb, 11, is thriving — full of energy and hope. His family is deeply grateful to Cincinnati Children's for the exceptional care, skill, and compassion that carried them through every step of their journey.
Caleb’s story is a powerful reminder that behind every child’s recovery stands a community of caregivers, donors, and supporters working together to change lives. Your generosity helps Cincinnati Children's dedicated team continue providing these life-saving moments for families in need.
Our mission compels us to go further, act faster and lead in ways others cannot.
We’re determined to create a vastly better future for children here in Cincinnati, across the nation and around the globe.
But we can’t do it alone. The potential to change and save lives is within our reach. And you can help.
