Share A Story NowNew Kid On the Ward
I was a scared 10-year-old girl in the hospital having reconstructive surgery. This was back when you checked into the hospital the day before your procedure.
I was shy but met some of the kids in the ward. I was pleased and surprised when they walked me to the elevator as I was being wheeled down for surgery.
But nothing could match my surprise as I was wheeled back into the ward 3 hours later and found nearly the whole ward waiting for me at the elevator door! They accompanied me back to my room until the nurse shooed them out. I have never forgotten that kindness.

By just standing there beside someone who is in pain, even without saying a word...that's a big thing.
