We have to be very sensitive and work closely with the doctors and nurses, who keep us updated on each patient. Paragraph 4 d What are the responsibilities of a clown doctor?

Seeing their daughter so much happier has in turn made Lara's parents more relaxed. Paragraph 5 e How does the clown doctor help the patient?
