Joseph will have quite a tale to tell. Rampone, a new spokeswoman for the hospital at Jersey Shore University Medical Center, showed him her three Olympic medals, autographed pictures and posed for photographs. She spent 15 minutes with the young patient, trying to brighten his day.

"I want to put a smile on kids' faces when they are going through a tough time," said Rampone, a graduate of Point Pleasant Boro High School and Monmouth University. "The experience of meeting an Olympic athlete, touching a medal, can maybe inspire the children to get back on the field or just become a sports fan."
