Fairhope’s Jenny Biggs, a former University of South Alabama Children’s & Women’s Hospital patient, will be featured in the Children's Miracle Network (CMN) Hospitals National Telethon June 1-2, 2013.
Biggs served last year as Alabama’s Champion for CMN Hospitals, an organization that raises support for children’s hospitals across North America.
Jenny came to USA Children's & Women's Hospital after a CT scan revealed a brain tumor. The surgery to remove the tumor went well, but Jenny quickly developed a blood clot in another area of her brain, requiring an emergency craniotomy. Jenny spent time on a ventilator and had to relearn how to talk, walk and use her right hand. Her physicians, nurses and therapists were amazed at her positive attitude throughout her recovery, and today she is a healthy, happy teenager.
