Check out the new BLOOM

By Louise Kinross

Here is the July issue of BLOOM!

And some comments to draw you into the content:

-From the lead author of a study on how children’s rehab can trigger negative parent emotions: 'We know about the stress, the frustration and the exhaustion of families. What we found in this study that was quite new was the trauma, upset and anger. That hasn’t been demonstrated in the literature before.' (See Research Hits)

-From our new BLOOM columnist Anchel Krishna: ‘When I was asked to write for BLOOM, it felt like a full-circle moment. One where I could use the space that helped me find connection to hopefully offer that same connection to someone else.’ (See Parent Talk)

-From a music therapy student whose connection with Holland Bloorview began when she was hospitalized here as a baby. 'I felt I could connect with kids on a deeper level because of my own experiences.' (See Student Stories)
