Hippoie Creek: What's in the name?
Eleanor, a patient who helped us design the original river cart, lost her beloved stuffed animal Hippoie one day in the hospital laundry.  Amazingly, Hippoie was found-clean- and returned to her.  Hippoie Creek is so named to honor Eleanor and all of the kids who have lost something by having to be hospitalized- our hope is that the creek helps them find something they are missing.
