A 13-year-old girl from Connecticut came up with a smart idea and brightened the days of hundreds of sick kids.
1to see her dear sister lying on the hospital bed three months ago, Ella Casano2the Medi Teddy, a stuffed animal bag that contains an IV pocket (静脉注射袋). The back of the 3 consists of a net, allowing a doctor or nurse to see through and check on the liquid 4 that a child is receiving. From the front, the child sees a 5 face instead of the IV liquid pocket.
At the beginning, Ella hoped to 6 $5, 000 through a GoFundMe page, which would have allowed her to start producing 500 Medi Teddys, the smallest number 7 by the manufacturer (厂家) to do the job. 8, in just over a week, Ella's page collected more than $20, 000. Although her sister recovered soon, Ella was amazed by the unexpected level of 9 and decided to work harder.
She shared with a local newspaper, "It turns out kids aren't the only ones who get 10 by the Medi Teddy. The 11 for it has been quite obvious among patients, both children and adults, and even pet owners nationwide. We want to continue to 12 Medi Teddys to as many children as we can to make a 13in their lives. "
The same motivation has also 14 Ella's mum. "It's really been heartwarming to receive such 15 emails from all over the world," she said. "And it's inspiring me to contribute to the process."
