A picture of hope at Alder Hey Children's Hospital
Available for 29 days
Now, this is a story of making something really special when in tough times. Seirian Richards was a patient in Alder Hey, and she and her mum Amanda decided to get creative. Using arts and crafts to help fill the long hours and stay positive during more than two years of tough treatment, a drawing has now been presented to Ward 3B. Inspired by the medicines used to treat her 10-year-old daughter, the pencil drawing includes around 95% of the plants the drugs were originally made from or the natural ingredients they were derived from.
