With the uncertainty, loss and illness the COVID-19 pandemic has spread across the nation and around the world, we understand this Mother’s Day might look a little different this year. But we at Loma Linda University Children’s Health don’t want to miss the opportunity to recognize and thank the most important women in our lives — the moms. Thank you for your tireless commitment to your families. You have our support every day, but especially today.
