.@zfrazier54 announced the selection of S Robert Spears-Jennings with Ryan, a former patient at @ChildrensPGH.

10-year-old Ryan is doing well, however, his journey has not been an easy one. Born with an intracranial arachnoid cyst, he has faced ongoing medical complexities and additional diagnoses over the years, each bringing its own challenges. Through it all, his strength and spirit continue to shine.
