SAW member Ralph Desmond (center of photo) made several memory boxes for terminally ill kids at UC Davis Medical Center. The boxes are used to leave mementos to the families after the child passes.
UC Davis Child Life services staffer Carla Andalis thanks SAW members for making the Medical Models. She is the one who will be using them with the children.
These are models of medical equipment that might be used in the hospital treatment of children: a CT scanner, MRI machine, gurneys, an I-V stand, and a medical computer console. These models will be used at UC Davis by a trained counselor to show the kids in a less freighting way what will happen during their procedures.
SAW member Joe Orbeck (at left photo) made the models. SAW Member Tom Harrington (2nd from left) arranged the donation and made the box. The kit of models was given to UC Davis Child Life services staffers Sherry Petta (2nd from right) and Carla Andalis (at far right of photo).
