In 2002 a few employees and their families were dealing with some serious health issues. It was then that a small group formed hoping to make a difference and raise money for charitable organizations. Over the years we’ve participated in many events including Light the Night Walk, the Walk MS, and the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure at North Park.

We have adopted angels from the Salvation Army Angel Tree, donated toys to Our Children’s House at Baylor, and collected canned food for the North Texas Food Bank. The physicians at POD over the years have generously matched our donations dollar for dollar. We have donation boxes at our check in and check out area. We greatly appreciate every donation.

Our group, now known as the POD Squad, has grown to include most of the employees. Our priority this year is the Food 4 Kids program with the North Texas Food Bank, the Walk MS, the Genesis Women’s Shelter, and the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure.

Following are a few photos from our POD Squad adventures:

“Old-Fashioned Parenting Books” by Chafen Watkins Hart, MD

I recently picked up the volume on child development published in Childcraft books, copyright 1949. My mother had saved these from her childhood, and I had never realized they included an entire volume about the intricacies of child development. I love reading long-forgotten books about childhood development and may write a few more blog entries on some gems from the past I’ve found useful.

The Milk Bank Tour by Ame Odom, LVC, IBCLC

I would like to open by first saying that I feel like the ability to provide extra breast milk and the choice to donate your milk at any capacity is an incredible feat and a selfless gift that is a very personal choice. I was not ever able to produce extra milk to donate with either of my breastfeeding journeys, so I can totally relate to most of us moms who are just able to provide enough for their baby’s needs, or even need to supplement due to a low supply or other complication.

Back to School for Children with ADHD by Susie Gartman, BSN, RN

As the end of summer vacation is approaching, some of our patients diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADD/ADHD) will start taking their medication. Other families decide to keep their child on their medication year round. There is not a right or wrong way. Each family decides what works best for their child. Each of our patients diagnosed with ADHD are unique, and therefore have different needs or reasons for taking stimulant medications.
