Dr. Purcell is a great gift to our whole family

We have been trying to find the right words to say "Thank you" to our son's angel and pediatrician, Dr. Linda Purcell. She is truly a gift from God. We wanted to let everyone know what wonderful works he is doing through her.

Thanks to Dr. Purcell's gifted hands, she was able to detect a mass in our beautiful baby boy at his six-month wellness visit. After an X-ray and an ultrasound, she gracefully informed us that our son most likely had cancer. Her find led us to a team of specialists who are all amazed by Dr. Purcell's swift detection of this mass, as he presented no other symptoms.

While we are certainly facing difficult times, it is refreshing to know that God has placed this wonderful person in our lives to watch over our children. We thank Dr. Purcell for taking such good care of our precious boy, and for giving him a chance at life. We thank her for the attention and Christian compassion she has shown our family. She has our utmost gratitude.
