Frankie the Stuffed Hamster Travels the World after Gifting it to Nursing Team at Good Samaritan
Dec 23, 2025"He's unforgettable. Unforgettable. I can see his smile right now. No matter what he was going through, he would always smile, just try to be positive, spread positivity, and keep us always smiling," Nubia Brown, an oncology nurse, said.
A former patient’s final gift wasn’t expensive or elaborate — but it’s now impossible to ignore. Inside Good Samaritan Medical Center's oncology unit, the small stuffed animal is making a big impact.
The hamster stuffed animal came with the nametag "Franklin" and was gifted to the nursing staff in the hospital's oncology unit by Gregg Hunt, a former patient. The small gift now has its own Instagram documenting its travels.
