Academy Award-winning actor Jennifer Lawrence, who is in Montreal filming the next installment of the X-Men franchise, took some time Friday afternoon to visit patients at the Shriners Hospital.

Lawrence posed for photos with the kids and hospital staff, signed casts and even yo-yoed with one little boy.

Patients at the Shriners Hospitals for Children are usually children with orthopaedic conditions, burns, spinal cord injuries, and cleft lip and palate.

A very special visitor came by to see some of our patients. Jennifer Lawrence is in town filming and spent some time with our #ShrinersCanada kids today. #JenniferLawrence
