This past Thursday I had the chance and the time to clown with some pediatric patients who were waiting to have surgery in the holding area. I'm on staff at St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital and there are times when the turnover time between operating room cases is long so this week I took advantage of that down time to play with a few children waiting for care. It was only a few minutes but the kids and the nurses were enjoying it. I really wish there was more time in my daily schedule for this type of clowning. I am going to try to make time in the future if I can, but for now we'll continue to squeeze it in.
We are scheduled to head back to Brookdale Hospital on X-mas day, so check us out after that....
