We took him into the treatment room and lo and behold, Mickey Mouse just happened to stop by with a little bit of Disney magic. He held the boy's hand while we got him cleaned up and ready to go back out to the park. Last month, I took Goofy to a local hospital. It's such a kick to walk down the hospital corridor with Goofy and watch all of the faces of the physicians, nurses, and staff. Sometimes they are intense, or sitting there behind the nurses station doing their charting, when they look up and see Goofy.
Nobody can help but smile.
It's a wonderful feeling, especially because I can relate to the nurses. I know what the day is like and the struggles they may have encountered. Also, when we are with the kids, I know what they have been going through with any kind of treatments they may have had.
