Hospital creates 'cat immersion room' to treat teen cancer patient

To cheer her up, hospital staff called on Facebook fans to submit their cat photos. More than 3,000 pics flowed in, proving once again that if there's one thing the Internet is great at, it's supplying photos of cats. The snapshots were then projected onto a tent around Maga's bed, creating a "cat immersion" room. We hope the unusual idea has Maga feline fine.
