But this art must be the best art you've ever done just for the joy it brings to those kids. Nice work my friend. Ron Hi Jeff,

You’ve really found a great thing to do with your talent and as you know, I know how much talent you really have! But this art must be the best art you’ve ever done just for the joy it brings to those kids. Nice work my friend.

I can imagine how fulfilling being able to make a difference in a sick child or his/her parent must be, even just a smile - but I can guarantee your pictures are hanging on refrigerators and children's bedrooms around the world. I am an employee and not in direct patient care so do appreciate those opportunities to direct a lost patient, give a smile, or even sit with someone who looks bewildered or sad and listen. Thanks for sharing your story, Jeff. It will make me think about what else I can do to try making a difference. As I read your story, Jeff, I realized I had tears running down my face.

The people who are employed by the Mayo are ordinary people doing amazing jobs. I am sure there are some that are not as perfect as others as in all jobs. But as a whole the people at the Mayo are incredible and they touch our lives as patients in ways no other medical facility does. I have a new outlook on life after reading this.
