✨What started as a holiday caroling event turned into something even more meaningful this year. Surrounded by music and encouragement, Matias took steps forward with his walker while Christie, our advanced clinician-therapist, supported him each step of the way. 🤝

There’s nothing like a fun day at the Houston Zoo! A couple of our patients spent the day exploring alongside their families and therapy team. Special outings like this help create positive memories beyond the hospital. 🫶🐯

The East West Shrine Bowl is the longest-running college all-star football game in the nation. Since 1925, the bowl has benefited Shriners Children’s and its mission. It’s more than just a game. ♥️🏈

Our patient ambassadors have a blast each year as they get the chance to meet players, watch football live, and share their story.

We highlighted some incredible patient and patient alumni stories this year on our website. One of them is Grace, a Shriners Children's Texas patient alumna whose story shows the full scope of care our teams provide. ♥️

At six years old, Grace survived a car explosion that left her with severe burns on both legs. She came to Shriners Children’s Texas for specialized burn care, where she underwent multiple surgeries and skin grafts, along with physical therapy to relearn how to walk. She also worked with our behavioral health team to process the trauma of the accident and rebuild a sense of safety.

Today, Grace is a college student who trains service dogs for children with disabilities. To read her full story and more patient journeys from 2025, visit: https://www.shrinerschildrens.org/en/news-and-media/patient-stories/2025/12/grace-burn-care

Verito recently returned home after months of orthopedic care at Shriners Children’s Texas. Born with spina bifida, she underwent surgery for clubfoot—and her progress has been nothing short of incredible.

She arrived in July unable to walk, but now she’s heading home on her feet! Creative, animal-loving, and full of joy, Verito even painted this beautiful piece of art during her stay.💛

“This was our second home,” her mom said. “We are grateful beyond words to the angels who helped Verito walk again.”
