Caring for children with compassion, Valley family shares their experience with Phoenix Children’s hospital

PHOENIX — At age eight, Norah Humphrey is thriving, but it was a different story when she was first born.

“It was pretty jarring to get that news and it was very confusing,” said Sean Humphrey.

Her father Sean recalled the frantic first hours. “Nora was born at Banner Thunderbird and they immediately med-evaced her to Phoenix Children’s and she went basically straight into a procedure when she was born,” said Sean.

“Cause my leg or my foot is like crooked,” added Norah.

“So, she had a clubfoot. She had an extra finger and she was born with a condition called transposition of the great arteries. And she ended up having two open heart surgeries and multiple heart cath procedures for that,” said Sean.
