What gifts can I give a child who has leukemia and is in the hopital?My friend's 3 year old child was just diagnosed with Leukemia and is in the hospital undergoing kemotherapy. The parents are both sleeping at the hospital every night and will be there for the next several nights. I'm not sure how sterile things need to be in order for her to play with them and i don't know what the parents need. Does anyone have some suggestions for me?

Maybe a teddy bear she can hug so she'll have a little buddy with her.

Gosh, that hurts my heart - my daughter is 3. A nice cuddly toy would be the best as it will be something that she can keep with her to help her get better. Make it something quite unusual and special.
Give her a kiss from all of us, if you can.

Give the parents a gift certificate to a restuarant along with a hand written one saying you will offer to babysit for the child once she is out of the hospital so they can go out. For the child a nice stuffed animal would be nice or a special pillow or blanket. Coloring books and crayons is another idea.
In the Blood -- Leukemia
Leukemias are cancers of the blood - what scientists call "liquid tumors" -- unlike the solid tumors in the tissues attacked by other cancers. George Daley has dedicated his career to cracking the mysteries of leukemia. He has had limited success and is now doing research on the use of stem cells from a patient's bone marrow.All 50 Secrets of the Sequence videos have an accompanying classroom-tested lesson that encourages students to further explore the video topics. Each lesson includes background information, state and national science standards, discussion questions and answers, teacher notes and an activity that will ensure a hands-on, "minds-on" experience.
