Allergy season has arrived, and many are already dealing with its effects. According to Internal Medicine Specialist Dr. Alain Kameni, the higher-than-usual levels are due to pollen exposure, with tree pollen being the biggest contributor.
Common symptoms include watery or itchy eyes, a runny nose, nasal congestion, postnasal drainage, and sneezing. Chills, fever, body aches, fatigue, loss of appetite, and coughing with sputum can help distinguish a common cold from seasonal allergies.
For relief, Dr. Kameni recommends oral antihistamines like Zyrtec, Allegra, or Claritin, which are most effective when taken before symptoms begin. For those with more severe or persistent symptoms throughout the year, allergy shots may be an option, and a consultation with a physician is recommended.

The 43rd Annual CHRISTUS Gala united our community in support of life‑saving care across Southeast Texas. Guests experienced an elegant evening of gourmet dining, highlighted by an unforgettable performance from Martina McBride.
The event also spotlighted the critical work of our Forensic Nursing program and featured the powerful introduction of Trace White, our 2026 Children’s Miracle Network Champion.
From celebration to meaningful impact, it was truly a night to remember. Together, more than $800,000 was raised in support of our local health system—funds that will help address critical needs across the region, including life‑saving medical equipment, comprehensive patient care programs, and essential services such as SANE and forensic nursing care, women’s health, maternal and newborn care, pediatric programs, and Children's Miracle Network initiatives.

Thank you to our sponsors, donors, guests, and friends whose generosity made this extraordinary evening and its lasting impact possible. ✨

Congratulations to Julie Alexander, RN, our newest DAISY Award winner! Julie is recognized for her extraordinary compassion and for treating patients and their loved ones like family. Her nominator shared that Julie approached an ICU family with a note that included her name and personal phone number, letting them know, “Because you are the patient’s family, you are my family too.” She reminded them they could reach out for anything they needed—blankets, pillows or support. The world truly needs more nurses like Julie.

Being prepared matters. Being prepared for your health starts with a plan. During National Health Care Decisions Day, it's important to remember that completing advance directives to improve end-of-life conversations should be as commonplace as financial planning. Unfortunately, only a third of people have completed these legal documents. Whether it's a Medical Power of Attorney or a Directive to Physicians and Family or Surrogates, taking time to document your wishes today helps ensure your voice is heard, your values are respected, and your loved ones are supported when decisions matter most.

Calcium scoring results indicate the amount of plaque present in the coronary arteries. A score of zero means no disease, no identifiable plaque, and a very low risk of a coronary event, with a retest recommended in five years. The range of 1 to 99 reflects early-stage disease with minimal plaque, and patients in this category should follow up with their primary care physician. Results between 100 and 399 indicate early-stage disease with moderate plaque, and mild coronary artery disease is highly likely, while readings of 400 or higher signal advanced disease and may require a same-day visit if the score reaches 1000. These categories help patients understand their results so they can discuss next steps with their doctor.

Rain is like your typical toddler—she loves watching Peppa Pig, eating popcorn, and playing with her kitchen set. With the help of speech and occupational therapy, she’s learning to communicate more clearly and manage her emotions through sensory activities like deep pressure and movement. This Autism Acceptance Month, we celebrate victories like Rain’s and the hard work put in to help each child thrive. Whether it’s improving communication, making new friends, or learning emotional regulation, we’re here to support every child along the way!

Lexy was 16 years old when she became an organ donor. Described by her mother, April Bertrand, as a "bright shining light who loved huge," Lexy wanted to be a nurse so she could help people. But she would do so in a different way following a tragic accident caused by an impaired driver. Lexy donated both kidneys, her heart, and her liver, giving three people she would never meet a second chance at life.

During National Donate Life Month, April urges families to talk about donation, reminding them that more than 100,000 people are on the U.S. waiting list, with over 10,000 in Texas and another added every eight minutes. Today, April is a nurse herself, inspired by Lexy’s dream of caring for others and determined to honor her by doing the same.

“I think the ultimate legacy of Lexy is love and hope," April said. "She continues to spread hope to others through her organ donation and the love she had for other people. Her organs live on in her recipients, and every time we tell her story of organ donation.”
