Reminds me of the tiny two day old I photographed in your Phoenix Children's Hospital earlier this year. I suppose apart from the helplessness of the child, I was most affected by photographing the woman surgeon inserting a probe through the body into the heart and fixing a defect the child was born with. And in this case, she made it possible for this little girl to have a future rather than death in a few days. But once again you've captured a tender and revealing moment most folks don't get to see other than through your efforts. And each time you post it's a great learning lesson for all of us who aren't there daily.
