“Two years ago, when our daughter Stella was just eight years old and facing the daunting prospect of starting growth hormone injections, we were blessed to meet Remy. What began as a mentorship became a lifeline for our family during one of our most challenging times.”

“Remy, then fifteen and a veteran of her own growth hormone therapy journey, volunteered countless hours to support Stella with extraordinary patience and grace. Through FaceTime calls and in-person visits, she met Stella exactly where she was—scared, overwhelmed, and struggling with both the fear of needles and the emotional weight of looking different from her friends. Remy didn’t just offer advice; she offered understanding born from lived experience, and she gave Stella something we as parents couldn’t: the reassurance that comes from someone who has walked the same path and emerged thriving on the other side.

I watched Remy coach Stella through every step with a wisdom and empathy far beyond her years. She celebrated small victories, normalized difficult feelings, and never minimized Stella’s fears. She simply held space for them while showing Stella that courage doesn’t mean not being afraid—it means moving forward anyway. I honestly don’t know how we would have navigated that journey without Remy’s help.

Now seventeen, Remy continues to embody the rare combination of brightness, empathy, and genuine kindness that makes her truly special. She chooses to spend her time lifting up younger children facing the same challenges she once faced, and in doing so, she changes lives. Anyone lucky enough to be in Remy’s orbit will benefit immeasurably from knowing her. Our family certainly has, and we will be forever grateful.”
