It also reminds me & encourages me that we still have so many individuals among us who care and give back to our fellow brother & sister of mankind. Which is just another reason, why our Father GOD BLESSED George To The Rescue And OUR AMERICA.

    The bed looks like fun. For a 6 year old. But not so sure it is such a good idea for a 16 year old who has to keep constant watch over her health. She may end up sleeping in the window sill. 😞 Wonder if she would like a twin size bed slipped under the loft bed if it would fit.

    Great kids, lovely family and such a sweet bright girl. Im so sorry for her illness and the ordeal to her and her family fighting it. She actually reminds me a bit of my niece, except for my niece is half Asian, but has European blood on our side, taking after our side a lot, (as in us large built people, Lol, so always been big for her age, with shoes big feet after my brother, her dad, and grew so fast!) She's about the same age, (well my neice is slightly younger and has time to mature a bit still, hopefully!) with all that long thick curly brown hair; my nieces is a little "crazier" though, more frizzy and out of control, and a she is little (or way!??) more rambunctuous, (but that probably wont go away, since, as my mum says, she definitely takes after me in that respect, blood is thicker than water, as they say!) Whereas this lovely girl is so calm and collected. (Maybe still has not regained all her strength yet??) But I do enjoy when she gets excited about her room. Anywhoo, love how the brother and sister get along SO WELL. I only ever wished for that myself with my brother but its not to be... (too spoiled!) And the mother is so greatful, most people/parents are, whose kids have been through something terrible, but this mum (mom) was so emotional. Im not sure they totally loved that loft bed in the end though, (for reasons which are totally understandable if they didnt!) It looked a little too high, even if practical at all, Im not too sure it was sensible with having to get up and down instead of just plonking down onto a nice soft normal level bed, for a person who has been ill, and is still weak from chemotherapy treatments. And there was plenty of empty space left in there, for a double canopy bed, maybe an old fashioned one with shutters even, or just the desk there and her bed on a lower level where the loft bed above the desk... they might have been creating a cave feel?? Not sure but a fort from a four poster bed would have been better, even for not little kids if you go by teenagers who were talking about making forts from a table in another one of the George to the rescue episodes

    This is beautiful, but why in the world would anyone put a bunk bed in for an ill or potentially-ill person? Omg. Such a bad idea. Sometimes they can't sit up in bed let alone climb up and down to use the lavatory or go get food, etc. Incorporating a murphy bed into the theme would have been a much better idea...for future rescues. :) That sounded very negative, but it's just one small point. Otherwise, this is the sweetest family and the renovation was so personal and helped so much. George is the best.

    They probably wanted a space for the family to hang out together especially when the kids were younger so the kids shared the room. Then, when they were probably discussing moving to the other floor, the daughter was diagnosed with leukemia. The family probably didn't feel comfortable with her having a room on her own incase she has an emergency in the middle of the night. Since the brother was in the room and the parents were next door they could keep an eye on her. She probably also spent a lot of time in the hospital so moving the bedroom was not the main priority. And they still had the family space to deal with the trauma.
