2023 Stroll for Strong Kids and 5K

Melinas Journey

Melina is a strong coragious girl who has been facing acute colonic pseudo obstruction now known as “ogilvie’s syndrome” since she was three years old.  Melina is now 11 years only and has been in recovery since 2018.  Today she still had frequent battles with pain and slow gut motility, but is doing a lot better.  From years of tube feeding, becoming TPN dependent and overcoming one of the most grim predictions of colonic motility she today is doing amazingly well. 

 We credit her amazing recovery and success to the work of the teams here at Golisano Children’s.  


The stroll for strong is one of the ways we look forward each year to giving back to this community.  We would love for you to come along with us in this amazing event of celebration.  



The annual Stroll for Strong Kids Walk and 5K Run will be held on June 4, 2023 where Golisano Children's Hospital supporters will enjoy a family-friendly atmosphere full of activities.
