When Hurricane Irma separated the little girl with leukemia, with her relatives, the staff of the medical institution organized a real holiday for the girl, tells Huffington Post.

“We wouldn’t let Hurricane Irma ruin Willow’s third birthday - our oncology team did everything to make her have a very special holiday with balloons, cake and gifts. Help us wish Willow a happy birthday! ”, - such a message posted on its Facebook account Johns Hopkins Children's Hospital from St. Petersburg, Florida.

Willow Steen was diagnosed with leukemia on September 8, just two days before her third birthday, coinciding with the hurricane's onslaught in Florida. The girl stayed with her mother in the hospital, preparing for chemotherapy, while her sister, father and friends were forced to wait out the storm at home. Nobody came for the birthday.

The medical staff organized the celebration using the resources available at the hospital. Doctors found out that Willow loves Frozen and brought gifts, from which she was delighted. Everywhere they hung flags signed by nurses. The cake was previously made and frozen to be used on some patient's birthday: and Willow came in handy.

“I've always dreamed about it,” said the little girl, finding surprises. “The way the little girl looked at her mother, opening gifts, is absolutely priceless!” One of the nurses said. “They have had a nightmare in the last 72 hours, and the fact that we were able to distract them from the diagnosis for a short time gave a lot of emotions to the whole family.”
