So, I don't even WANT to know what sort of scum would steal from a children's hospital

I am choosing to assume it's the desperately poor parents of a dying child who, in their grief, have forgotten all codes of conduct they should've learned when they were little, and who have given up on hospitals altogether and want to make their child's days at home a little more TV-filled. Because otherwise it just doesn't make sense at all, and we're back to "What sort of scum does this sort of thing?"

At any rate, there's a request out for anybody who has the money to do so to purchase child-appropriate Region 4 DVDs from sellers in Australia (that's where the hospital is) to send to them.
