Original Toronto Star caption: East general hospital is overcrowded; with as many as eight children in the small pediatrics ward; but nurse Yeung Chun Lum still makes the time to comfort and amuse 7-month-old Kim Davies in her crib. The hospital has the busiest emergency room in Metro and only 594 beds for patients; some must sleep on stretchers in observation rooms. There's building fund drive on now to raise $15 million.
