"Art for Easter" and "Pillows for Parents" ~ Spring 2015

Today, Rowan and I were able to drop off more donations for the patients and parents at Methodist Children's Hospital in San Antonio, from his foundation: The Rowan Jameson Windham Foundation. 


 




This whole car load was to bless those that will be there during the upcoming Easter Holiday. 




Here are some of the specific items we were able to purchase for them...

We dropped off hundreds of filled Easter eggs for the post-op surgical patients to go on an Easter egg hunt next week...over 400 of them!

 




Easter Baskets for them to fill...




 Stuffed Easter bunnies, chicks, ducks, lambs and pigs...









 We also brought lots and lots of different types of art sets, craft kits and coloring books, sticker books, crayons, etc...

 


 














As always, we try to remember the parents who will be staying with them during the holidays as well.  This time, we purchased big fluffy pillows and 400-500 count soft cotton pillow cases to go on them, for the parents, as well as refillable water bottles that we filled with chocolates, chap-stick and lotion (all things that I have found helpful during my own long stays with Rowan).  













Finally, we dropped off several boxes of flavored creamers for the parents on the transplant/oncology floor. (One of the charge nurses during our last stay gave me this great idea:)



Hopefully, all of these items will bless the Moms and Dads that will be staying with their children in the hospital during the Easter holiday this year.

Thank you to everyone who volunteered, contributed to, or participated in The Toughest Dog in Texas Competition this past October, and to those who made private donations to The Rowan Jameson Windham Foundation this year.  You helped make today's donations to the hospital possible! 

Happy Easter!
