Time for a heartwarming story? Here is a great one!

After receiving exceptional care from Dr. Barnett for a surgical procedure, Ellie wanted to give back! ๐Ÿ’›

With help from her sister, Josie, she set up a lemonade stand to raise money for kids receiving care at Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center ๐Ÿฅ through our Children's Miracle Network Hospitals Program. Together, they raised an impressive $250.87! ๐Ÿ’ฐ

Thank you, Ellie and Josie, for your kindness and generosityโ€”and a special shoutout to Dr. Barnett for the compassionate care that inspired such a sweet act of giving! ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ‹
