KMBC 9: Meet Martin, subject of an episode of Inside Pediatrics

By Alan Shope

Every year, families are faced with tough decisions when it comes to their children's health.

For some, that means weeks and even months in a hospital.

Children's Mercy Hospital is preparing new episodes of Inside Pediatrics on KMBC 9.

At the premiere party Thursday night, we got a chance to meet 5-year-old Martin Callaway.

"Martin has cerebral palsy, so we see a lot of doctors," Abbey Callaway said.

For Martin, moving around was a struggle until his surgery last July.

"He's having the time of his life because of what Children's Mercy did for us," Trevor Callaway said. "I won't ever be able to find the words to thank them for what they have done for my son. I couldn't imagine where we would be if we didn't have them."

You can watch Inside Pediatrics on KMBC 9 starting Sunday, Jan. 27 at 6 p.m.
