Now, as Global Ambassador for Starlight Children's Foundation, which brightens the lives of poorly children, I visit hospitals and tell stories to the young patients. Sometimes I read. Sometimes I draw.
When your child is sick, you have tunnel vision.
I saw a lot of children who were in the latest stages of malaria. Those kids died very quickly.

Kids get sick in preschool. A lot. Make sure that your kids are getting all the immune boosting they can to fight the germs!

Kids are like buckets of disease that live in your house.
