Sunshine Kids off to Austin, Texas

A carload of us went down to Pearson Airport this morning to see off four Sunshine Kids who are off to Texas for a week of fun. Here is a picture of them with their nurse from Sick Kids, Karen (who has graciously donated her time) as they are about to check their luggage. It was great to meet them and tell them a bit about Sunshine Kids. None of them had met before this morning, so I think they're probably a little apprehensive. But we all know that will change quickly.
