My friend's 3 year old child was just diagnosed with Leukemia and is in the hospital undergoing kemotherapy. The parents are both sleeping at the hospital every night and will be there for the next several nights. I'm not sure how sterile things need to be in order for her to play with them and i don't know what the parents need. Does anyone have some suggestions for me?

Maybe a teddy bear she can hug so she'll have a little buddy with her.

Smile/hugs and love. The gifts that no man/woman can buy.

Gosh, that hurts my heart - my daughter is 3. A nice cuddly toy would be the best as it will be something that she can keep with her to help her get better. Make it something quite unusual and special.Give her a kiss from all of us, if you can.
