The children's hospital provides the kids a way to remember their journey as a patient in a fun and creative way, they create a "Journey Bead Necklace". Each bead on the necklace represents something different, and there is a bead for everything, every night you stay at the hospital, every time you pee in a cup, every time you get blood work done, a birthday bead, holiday beads, beads with letters, etc. One really neat thing is that every day you are at the hospital you get to pick either a "having a good day" bead or a "having a bad day" bead, through Hope's entire journey she has refused to pick a "bad day bead". She is so inspiring through this and continues to show us how to handle tough situations with a cheerful spirit. I have a feeling she will probably have several Journey Bead Necklaces once this is all done.
