A teen is donating hundreds of toys to help make kids feel a little more comfortable in the hospital. The teen continued her tradition of giving toys to children staying at Mayo Clinic Health System in Eau Claire on Friday and it's the most she's ever donated.
13-year-old Katie Rhoten started the tradition of giving toys after she was given a toy during a hospital stay back in 2008. She says after six donations in four years she's hoping to keep it growing.
As she pushes a cart full of toys through Mayo Clinic Health System in Eau Claire, Katie Rhoten is reminded of when she was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes four years ago.
