The Musings Of An Opinionated Sod [Help Me Grow!]

As I was leaving I saw a billboard for a kids hospital.

Well, it says hospital, but it’s actually a charity that serves hospitals.

All hospitals are amazing, but ones for kids are incredible.

Helping those delicate tiny lives … often unable to understand or express what they are feeling … is basically nothing short of saintly in my book. It hits home even more as people on this blog – including myself – have had to experience the anguish of having a sick kid that relied on the brilliance of Doctors and Nurses as well as the miracle of modern medicine to help them come through.

Anyway, this billboard stood out for reasons beyond just the little baby being featured.

More for its name and logo.

Given it chose to name itself after a Nursery Rhyme character that couldn’t be put back together again [which is not surprising given it was being done by the King’s horses and men] it leaves me wondering if the consultants that came up with the name may need hospital treatment of their own.

Humpty might be a terrible name, but it’s a brilliant charity.

One that shouldn’t need to get donations to help other hospitals keep functioning and save lives.

But they do, so if you can donate, I know they would be grateful.
