Well Bear Clinic

On Thursday, Abby's class took a trip to the UVA children's hospital Well Bear Clinic. They each chose an animal that they wanted to have checked out. Abby chose Sparkles, her unicorn, seen below having her pulse recorded. At the other stations, the "nurses" weighed and measured Sparkles, checked her eyes, ears, and throat, tested her reflexes, looked at her teeth, and gave her a shot. Quite a morning for a little unicorn.

Here are Abby and Caroline showing off their animals.

Happily, everyone got a clean bill of health.
