Part 2: In this second part of our series on the Complex Medical Care Program, we’re joined by Dr. Aline Tanios, Dr. Michael Smiley, and the inspiring Watson family—parents Rose and Demetrius, and their 7-year-old daughter, Lavender, affectionately known as 'The Queen.' Lavender was born with Trisomy 18, a condition often described as 'incompatible with life,' but her story is one of defying the odds every step of the way. In this heartfelt episode, we hear how the Complex Medical Care Program has supported Lavender and her family through some of the most challenging moments, and how they’ve found strength, hope, and a new perspective on life through this journey. This is a powerful story of resilience, love, and the importance of compassionate care.
