Change Bandit



Every Year a radio station near my area
puts on a radio a thon along with the hospital foundation
to raise money for this hospital.

I have first hand experience with this as my daughter had
knee surgery here last year the staff is so gentle and kind
with the children and friendly and caring to the parents.

last Thursday the foundation and sponsors always throw what
they call a " Change Bandit Bash" where they put on a concert
with a country artist and give out food for all the change bandits
that bring their "loot bags of change" it is a great celebration
I did not get to attend last weeks festivites but my pals did
and they had a great time there is always next year.( I do this
every year!)

The children in this hospital amaze me and their strength is
so encouraging I am in total awe of all of them they are there
from different kinds of cancer to rare illnesses that I can not
even begin to imagine and as I said the staff treat the child
with such love and care and they give that same treatment
to the families. I know I love being a "change Bandit"
