NORFOLK â The Norwood-Norfolk Key Club donated three Comfort Cubs to Canton-Potsdam Hospital on March 30.
Executive Director April Grant, of the St. Lawrence Health Foundation at Canton-Potsdam Hospital, said the bears came at a good time as she said they had run out of their previous supply.
Comfort Cubs were created by Marcella Johnson, who came up with the idea after she lost a baby in childbirth. Marcella never wanted another woman to go home empty-handed, so Comfort Cubs were born.
Comfort Cubs are weighted bears and are now used for any types of trauma. The Comfort Cubs are going directly to the birth place at Canton-Potsdam Hospital to help with grieving mothers and family.
