Throughout, doctors and nurses were impressed by Drew’s persistent “can-do” attitude and the concern he expressed for others, despite what he was going through himself. He has a great outlook on life and hasn’t let his traumatic experience get him down. TDrew is a happy and seemingly carefree child with a knack for making people laugh. For Drew, it was never a question of whether he’d walk and run again; he was determined to do both and pushed through the pain. He is an inspiration to others and draws upon his faith as a source of strength. “Since God saved me,” says Drew, “I know he has a purpose for me, and I can’t wait to find out what that purpose is.” Through laughter, prayer and play with Nerf toys, Drew formed lasting relationships with nurses, physicians and administrators at the hospital. 4 Sacred Heart Foundation “It’s about paying it forward and raising money to be there for someone else’s child. People have poured into us, and we are grateful.” – TREY BAREFIELD “Every one of the nurses became family to us. The nurses weren’t just treating Drew. They were making sure we were being taken care of,” says Drew’s mother, Wendy. Drew, meanwhile, had a significant impact on his caregivers. “Drew became a blessing and inspiration to everyone at Sacred Heart and showed us that good things and miraculous things happen when we work together,” says Dr. Robert Patterson, medical director at The Studer Family Children’s Hospital at Sacred Heart. Drew brought people together in ways that demonstrated what community truly means. First responders, caretakers, physicians, hospital personnel and other concerned persons united to provide Drew the life-saving care he needed. “God put people in place that were meant to be,” says Trey, Drew’s dad. Indeed, it took an entire community to save Drew’s life. While many stories would have ended after rehabilitation, Drew’s is just beginning. On May 5, 2016, about two years after his accident, Drew was celebrated as the 2016-2017 Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals Champion for Florida due to his remarkable medical story and his demonstrated passion for advocating on behalf of children’s hospitals. Drew wants to use this opportunity to tell his story and inspire other children to keep their spirits up. Now 14 years old, Drew’s generous heart and sincere gratitude will leave a legacy for the children and families in our communities for years to come. “It’s about paying it forward and raising money to be there for someone else’s child. People have poured into us, and we are grateful,” says Trey. Remarkably, Drew and his family have pledged to raise $1 million for The Studer Family Children’s Hospital at Sacred Heart.

The groundbreaking was about “what the Studers represent to our community, and what Quint represents to healthcare across our nation,” says Susan Davis, CEO of Sacred Heart Health System. Widely known and respected within the healthcare field as founder of the Studer Group, Quint Studer is a consultant who has worked with 900 hospitals during his 29-year career. Quint and his wife, Rishy, have been strong proponents of the development and betterment of our community.

We’re very fortunate to have Sacred Heart. How a community takes care of its less fortunate speaks to the values of a community.” In reference to the naming of the hospital, Quint said, “On behalf of Rishy, myself and Mallory, we are thrilled with this honor and we plan, with you, Susan, to help do the heavy lifting, believing that we need to continue to raise money to make this children’s hospital a reality.” 2016 ANNUAL REPORT 7 Making Miracles For Our Children The Sacred Heart Foundation is honored to be a 30-year partner with Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals (CMNH).
