Compared to a three-year-old or a five-year-old.... The studies have shown that the children really do need to have their parents there while they're going through their treatment, their diagnosis, the testing, and all of these different things; the needs of the patient here are, from a medical perspective and an emotional perspective, generally recognized to be much more significant than they are for adults. But we recognize that the adults have needs as well, and that's why the compassionate care benefit is there.
