MADISON -- Mike McCarthy visited UW Health's American Family Children's Hospital in Madison on Tuesday.

The Green Bay Packers head coach played dinosaurs with a little kid in the ICU and signed Packers hats for others.

"It's special. I think it's always different, it's never really the same," McCarthy said. "To be able to step inside their world for five minutes to see and be a part of their fight. I'm just trying to bring a smile and a baseball hat just try to bring some happiness for a little bit to their family."

McCarthy has been doing the visits for the past seven years.
