Huge THANK YOU to Peter Piper Pizza for serving up generosity during their February fundraiser! Special shoutout to the 3131 SE Military Dr. store for leading the way with the highest amount fundraised. 🙌
Thanks to Peter Piper Pizza locations across San Antonio, Victoria, Eagle Pass and Laredo, the combined efforts raised an incredible $7,418 for our hospital. We’re so grateful for every slice of support! ❤️

“You, like the little caterpillar, will grow up, unfold your wings, and fly off into the future.” – Eric Carle 🐛💜
We're celebrating the Battle of Flowers Parade in the most adorable way with the Very Hungry Caterpillar balloon leading the fun! And to celebrate, two of our newest little miracles made their grand debut dressed for the occasion.

From first breaths to first Fiesta moments, we’re honored to be part of these beautiful beginnings and bright futures ahead. If you’re at the parade, keep an eye out for our caterpillar crawling through the crowd!

Behind every child we care for is an entire team! Because caring for kids means getting them back to what matters most: just being kids!

Because every mom deserves expert care, we’re proud to share that our transport program is the first in the nation to achieve certification in Obstetric Life Support (OBLS), a major milestone in advancing care for high-risk moms.
As our patients’ needs continue to grow more complex, our team has been hard at work strengthening how we respond in critical moments. Every step is coordinated and focused on delivering the highest level of care when it matters most.

And we’re not stopping there. Our team is also being trained to use the JADA device to treat postpartum hemorrhage, bringing advanced, high-level care directly into the field.

No one embodies the VIVA spirit quite like the Texas Cavaliers and our friend Maddox💙🎉❤️!
For decades, this incredible group has been a dedicated supporter of our downtown hospital, bringing joy, tradition and plenty of Fiesta spirit to our patients and families. As proud sponsors and beneficiaries of the Texas Cavaliers River Parade, we’re always honored to celebrate alongside them and the San Antonio community.
This year was extra special. Maddox returned to welcome King Antonio, just like he did while he was an inpatient in 2024, a full-circle moment in his journey.
Thank you, King Antonio, for keeping the tradition alive—VIVA! 🥳

Holy Cow! Fiesta is here, and so is our 2026 medal!
Featuring "Holy Cow" painted by our Associate, Anthony De Leon Sr., this year’s medal is more than a celebration of Fiesta, it’s a story of healing, heritage and heart.
Inspired by Mexican Talavera design, it showcases purple for creativity and strength, with gold accents for celebration. A rose honors a loved one, while a butterfly symbolizes transformation and hope.
We're celebrating Fiesta with a medal that carries meaning in every detail. 💜

Join us in saluting our most recent inpatient rehab graduate, Joel Gutierrez! After more than 70 days of care at CHRISTUS Children's, Joel is heading home!
An active member of his school’s Army JROTC program, Joel demonstrated daily perseverance as he relearned skills and rebuilt strength while working alongside our rehab and Child Life teams.
Our teams honored him with a hero’s send-off through a tunnel of hospital Associates, veterans and members of the United States Air Force. Joel was surrounded by family and his care team as he was promoted to JROTC Cadet Corporal, a moment that celebrates the determination and leadership he’s shown throughout his journey.

His journey isn’t over as he returns home to continue his recovery, but today is a powerful reminder of how far he’s come.

As Pediatric Neurologist Dr. Seth Van Zant shares, autism is a common neurodevelopmental condition that affects social communication. That’s why Autism Acceptance Month calls us to move beyond awareness and toward deeper understanding, inclusion, and support. But acceptance means more than just recognizing autism; it's building communities where every child is valued and able to thrive just as they are.
Early identification matters. Developmental screenings as early as 18–24 months can connect families to care that makes a lasting difference. If you have concerns, trust your instincts and speak with your child’s pediatrician.
