When a grateful patient wanted to give something back to @AdventistHealth Portland, she started a knitting club. Lovingly crafted by a group of knitters and crocheters from East Woods Presbyterian Church in Vancouver, the blankets wrap patients with love throughout the hospital. The wraps come with gift bags and cards bearing words of encouragement. In the spirit of true generosity, the organizer of the knitting club that has brought so much peace and comfort has remained anonymous.
