  • “If We Didn't Have RMH This Surgery Wouldn't Be Possible”
    SPRING 2016 “If we didn’t have RMH this surgery wouldn’t be possible” The Whiddons are no strangers to the medical world. As most lives begin within hospital walls, the trip home usually follows within the first few days of life. Unfortunately for Laneah and her family this was not the case. A hospital was Laneah’s home for her first 3 months of life. Within her first year, Laneah was trached and vented, suffered from RSV and a lung collapse along with many other challenges. She was diagnosed with Global Hypertonia, a disorder similar to Muscular Dystrophy, which consists of abnormal increases in muscle tension and a reduced ability of a muscle to stretch. The struggle to find stability for Laneah took many years for the Whiddon family. During Laneah’s first 6 years of life, the family drove over an hour each way so she could receive ongoing treatment. Mom, Dana, recalls many “uncomfortable nights” and “long drives” she and her husband, Bobbie, endured so they could be close to their daughter’s side. Laneah had a stable stretch of years where she required no hospitalization, thankfully, but still had a lot of outpatient appointments. Then, at a check-up a year ago, Dana received news that Laneah would require a series of invasive surgeries. Feeling as though she needed a second opinion, Dana began her research and that’s when she came across Dr. Freeman Miller, with Nemours/Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children. Dr. Miller had a different approach, one that Dana and her family felt more comfortable with.

  • To Whom It May Concern, I Am a Learning Specialist at Tower Hill School. I Began My Career in Education at the Lab School in Washington D.C
    From: Samantha Spruance To: infocso Subject: "Support for Keeping Gateway Lab School" Date: Monday, December 08, 2014 2:34:45 PM To whom it may concern, I am a learning specialist at Tower Hill School. I began my career in education at The Lab School in Washington D.C. - The school that Gateway is modeled after! I am shocked and saddened to learn that Gateway is closing because the students are not meeting state test scores. State testing will not measure a child with learning disabilities ability! The Gateway school provides the best education model possible. When I started with the students at The Lab School, they were all reading 3-4 years below grade level. They all graduated from The Lab School, attended college and are successful, hard working citizens. It does not make sense to deprive them of the resources that they need and put them into an educational setting that does not provide what they need. Thank you, Samantha Spruance Regarding: Kevin MacMicking, 5th grader at Gateway Lab School When I first heard that Gateway Lab School would be closing at the end of the year, I was deeply saddened. Our son is a 5th grader who attends Gateway. He started in 3rd grade. My husband and I have seen significant achievements since he started there. As you know, Gateway Lab School starts providing education for grade three up through grade 8. The primary population of this school has either an IEP (60%) or a 504 (9%). Children come to this school because they are not achieving academic or social success in their feeder pattern school.
