I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else

Laurel Stout of Battle Creek was just two years old in October of 2020 when doctors told her mom what was making her daughter so sick. Leukemia. “I held her and I cried,” recalls Brittney Anderson. Almost immediately, the little girl started chemotherapy at Bronson Children’s Hospital. After her week-long stay as an inpatient, Laurel has returned to Bronson Pediatric Hematology and Oncology Clinic nearly every week since for treatment. Brittney appreciates not just the medical care, but the services and child-friendly environment supported by donors to the Bronson Health Foundation. “The team here has every aspect covered. I don’t have to worry about anything except showing up for appointments,” says Brittney. “I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. Everyone here is like family and Laurel loves them.”
