PEORIA - Patients at Peoria's Children's Hospital of Illinois got a special treat Wednesday.
A Budweiser Clydesdale paid them a visit. Kids like three-year-old Aiyden Wilburn got to pet the horse. Aiyden's dad says the visit means a lot to his son.
"I think it gives the kids a purpose to keep on, to keep moving," Justin Wilburn said. "It gives him a good chance to keep going."
The Budweiser Clydesdales are in town for an appearance at this weekend's Peoria Chiefs game.
