Kamden, son of Martin and Jamee, has been named the March 28, 2020 Hot Shot. Kamden is 6 years old and has a very active imagination. He also likes to make friends and help those in need, including caring for his younger sister.

 

Kamden is a medically complex kiddo that has Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), anxiety and insomnia.

 

ADHD and ASD are neurodevelopmental disorders that impact similar brain functions. They are distinct conditions but share some symptoms.  Children with ADHD or ASD often have attention problems and may feel lost or confused in normal social situations, such as school.  As their anxiety starts to rise in uncomfortable situations, they feel fear and panic and resort quickly to their fight, flight or freeze responses.  Many also suffer from chronic worrying.  The constant activity drive from ADHD, features such as repetitive behaviors with ASD in addition to chronic worrying can often lead to sleep issues, including insomnia.  In return, ADHD, ASD and anxiety behaviors are worse with sleep deprivation, making this a very hard situation for the patient and their loved ones to manage.

 

Kamden’s family no longer lives in the Le Mars area but have chosen to drive from Danbury to continue services at FVH. They enjoy the primary care and medication management with pediatrician Dr. Jolene Meis and speech therapy sessions with Jess Martinez as they work to help Kamden.

 

Please join us in celebrating Kamden, our March Hot Shot!

 

The Sioux City Musketeers, in partnership with Floyd Valley Healthcare (FVH) began the Hot Shots program in 2018.  This program was created with the goal of honoring FVH pediatric patients who have chronic health issues. We are excited to give children an opportunity to have a fun time with their family, cheer on the team and just enjoy being a kid for a night.
