Dr Bob Parry, Pediatric Surgeon and Bandage Artist

There are some really special people in this world. Dr Bob Parry, pediatric surgeon who personalizes each surgery by making a bandage for his patients is one of them. He’s on staff at Akron Children’s Hospital in Ohio.

He said he’s done over 10,000 bandages for patients. While he’s not a professional artist, you can see from the few bandages here that he’s quite good. He definitely puts a lot of love into his art. Imagine a child waking up from surgery, it’s scary and this thoughtful distraction for the patient and parents is really wonderful.

His story is best told in this YouTube video. He explains what he does.

I’ve heard this story before. I wanted to share it for those who have not heard it. Lately, many people are experiencing sadness and tough times.

This can brighten someone’s day! There is love out there.

      Thanks, Pat. I was able to delete the other message. Autocorrect does do some crazy things!
