Medical experts say many children often get frightened in a hospital setting, particularly when that child takes an unexpected trip to the emergency room.

The WINGS Foundation in Athens hopes to calm fears amongst young patients at O'Bleness Memorial Hospital by providing them with a soft, cuddly friend.

WOUB's Kaitlyn Marshall talked to Debra Cochran of the WINGS Foundation about its teddy bear drive.

From the organization:
