Nathan,

The funny thing is, from my limited experience with childhood diseases, 
that some adult probably gave her that periodical based on the cancer 
connection.  But Kali, she is just doing a word-find.  Children amaze 
me in their ability to be totally unconcerned about their personal 
condition - especially when faced with empathizing for another in the 
very hospital that they are in.  It is heart-warming and saddening all 
at the same time.
