Review for Christopher's Haven, Boston, MA, USA
The help, healing and hope that was given to us at Christopher's Haven had a dramatic effect on my son's ability to not only tolerate the proton radiation, but actually heal from his brain surgery.

Review for Christopher's Haven, Boston, MA, USA
My son and I stayed here while he received Proton Radiation and speech, vision, occupational and physical therapies. Because of its proximity to MGH he was able to maintain a schedule with up to five appointments each day and still have time to rest and recuperate. He arrived in a wheelchair and left walking. However, Christopher's Haven is more than just affordable and convenient housing. It is a refuge for families during an incredibly stressful time in their lives. The sense of community is amazing. In addition to an amazing professional team (Dan, Martha and Katelyn) the families develop a bond which helps everyone heal, parents, sibling, aunts, uncles and grandparents.
