My little feet were being straightened so that I’d be able to romp and play when I’m older. “I’m all better now—going home to-morrow. I feel just fine, too, except when I think of the debts I’ll be leaving behind. You see, Daddy isn’t able to pay for the wonderful care and treatment I received. “The Government and the city I live in, together, paid $2.35 each day I was here. Unfortunately, that isn’t enough because, it costs the Hospital an average of $3.45 every day to treat me and each other little patient. “More than eight thousand little children were cared for here last year, just like me. We’re the ones who cause the large deficit of The Hospital for Sick Children every year— but everyone admits that we’re worth it. “It isn’t our fault that we get sick or become crippled, but the least we can do is appeal to you for help—particularly when we know that this Hospital does not share in the Toronto Federation for Community Service funds because Public Ward patients are admitted from any part of the Province. “Won’t you send a donation to the Hospital to help meet this deficit?
