Interview with Dr. Gracie and Dr. Bounce

One of our team members Patrick had the chance to interview the Big Apple Circus Clown Care Doctors: Dr. Gracie and Dr. Bounce. They were there entertaining the kids that were ill. Patrick interviewed them at the Children's Hospital in Boston and asked the following questions.

Q: Can I ask your opinion, how does laughter affect the healing process?
A: It helps kids forget about pain for a short time.

Q: If the Big Apple Circus Clown Care were not at the Hospitals would there still be some laughter?
A: Yes there would but there
would not be as much.

 

Q: How do you make kids laugh?
A: The power of stupidity.

Q: Why do you think laughter is important?
A: It's the best part of life.

Q: Is there an age that the kids would not want to be entertained by a clown?
A: No. It is more of the situation they are in.
