Her hospital room faced one of the massive frat houses on UCLA\u2019s fraternity row. To pass the time and have a little fun, Lexi and her mom put a sign in the window asking for a pizza delivery, not thinking it would lead to something so incredible.<\/p>\n<p>The members of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon house heard about the sign, so they walked across the street. Not only did they bring pizza, but they also brought a bouquet of roses, and a guitar. Here was a bunch of 20-something frat guys, taking time out of their day to play music for a sick little girl. Lexi\u2019s mom, Lisa, was touched to tears.<\/p>\n<p>The surprises didn\u2019t end there. Lexi struck up a friendship with the SAE fraternity. The guys arranged for all sorts of exciting visits for Lexi, from the UCLA football team to women\u2019s tennis players. But Lexi\u2019s newfound popularity didn\u2019t stop the frat brothers from continuing to show up at her hospital bed \u2014 to play cards, to bring her a stuffed animal, or to simply sit and talk.<\/p>\n<p>But one night came the clincher. Lexi and her parents\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.littlethings.com\/superheroes-washing-windows\/?&amp;utm_source=loud\" target=\"_blank\">peeked out the hospital window<\/a>\u00a0and made a stunning discovery.<\/p>\n<p>Wait until you see what the SAE brothers did to their fraternity house directly across the street\u2026<\/p>\n<p>[ <a href=\"http:\/\/www.littlethings.com\/frat-brothers-surprise-lexi\/\" target=\"_blank\">click to continue reading at LittleThings.com<\/a> ]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>from LittleThings Frat Brothers Brighten Hospital Room For Brave Little Girl by Barbara Diamond Twelve-year-old Lexi Brown has cancer, and she recently spent some time at the Mattel Children\u2019s Hospital UCLA in California.
