With all the doom and gloom that comes with Covid 19, here is a light and heartwarming story from the virus stricken Hebei province. Xinhua news reported that children under treatment at Xiangyang Central Hospital in central China's Hubei Province had a day full of surprises. Barbie dolls, stuffed toys, each and every kid received a new gift. The toys came from pediatricians from a medical team with Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University who came to Xiangyang from northeast China's Liaoning Province to join the battle against the novel coronavirus disease.
"The children were overjoyed," recalled Xu Wei, a member of the team, in his daily log. "A seven-year-old boy who had barely talked to us even jumped to his feet and greeted us when he got the toy."
"At that moment, fear vanished from his eyes, and again he was as carefree and cheerful as a seven-year-old should be," Xu wrote.
