Vlado said of the experience:

“It was great to be able to put a smile on the faces of so severely ill children.  “The most difficult visits were with children in their rooms. These children are hospitalized in their rooms because their illness is most severe and the most difficult cases. But all children promised to me that they will meet with me in the future – right in the theater, to participate in the entertaining fun program.”
