Young patients at Winthrop-University Hospital were eager to greet some of
their favorite players from the New York Islanders who visited the hospital’s
Hagedorn Pediatric Inpatient Center on December 17. New York Islanders
center Doug Weight (back row, left), defenseman Mark Streit (back row, center)
and center Ben Walter (back row, right) brought smiles to many faces this holiday
season as they spent time visiting with patients and their family members,
signing autographs, and handing out toys generously donated by the NHL.
Following an initial gathering with patients and families in the Child Life
Playroom, the players went room to room to give gifts and make special bedside
visits to children within Winthrop’s Pediatric Unit.
