People say that music has a healing power.

And in 6-year-old Tyree Walters' case, he has plenty of healing to do.

Tyree's PS3 was stolen while the Hikurangi six-year-old was in hospital being treated for dog bites.

The PS3 beloned to Tyree's dad, who died three years ago. The PS3 has music on it which reminds Tyree of his dad.
