Nile Whidden lives in pain almost every day of his life.
He has Juvenile Ideopathic Arthritis, or JIA, which causes swelling and pain in the knees, ankles, wrists and other joints.
Nile and his family agreed to let us tag along during a recent check up here at the IWK.
Here’s what that sounded like:
A big thanks to the Whidden family for allowing us to be there with them during some private moments with caregivers.
We heard Nile’s dad Jamie say how terrible it feels to watch his child suffer.
None of us want any child to suffer, and that’s why we’re here, to do our small part to take away that pain for kids like Nile.
Please take a moment to call or log on and become an IWK Superstar for these kids – send them the message that you believe in them, and want them to be pain free.
