Stories about illness: groups of children (3)

Age:

There are four people: Ethan, an 8-year-old boy with curly brown hair in light blue star pajamas lying in a hospital bed on the left, connected to a small monitor on his chest and smiling gently; Dr. Collins, a man in his forties with a round, kind face in a white coat and red stethoscope, standing by the head of the bed with a reassuring hand on Ethan’s shoulder; Jake, a 10-year-old boy with short chestnut hair in a sky-blue T-shirt, seated to the right holding a small yellow stuffed toy and looking at Ethan admiringly; and Mia, a 9-year-old girl with black hair in two braids in a green polka-dot dress, crouched at the foot of the bed holding an open colorful book as if reading to him. The setting is a bright, gentle pediatric room with peach pastel walls, cute animal stickers, a large window on the left with golden light, a small table with colored pencils and a potted plant, light wood flooring and blue-and-white striped curtains. The scene is warm and calm: Ethan shows his gently vibrating monitor, Dr. Collins reassures him while Jake and Mia encourage him, the group forms a close, supportive circle around the bed.
