CFD Helps Santa With A Special Visit

Ladder 1 (Green) was so happy to be Santa’s helpers when they gave him a lift outside of Children's Hospital at Erlanger on Wednesday, bringing him to the upper floors of the building. 

He said hello to the hematology/oncology patients and even FaceTimed with the kids so they could talk to him safely from inside the hospital. COVID made for a different kind of interaction with Santa, but it was great event enjoyed by everyone involved. One of the children asked for “lots of Christmas cheer” this year- a meaningful request! 

Footage and photos from the unique visit was shared by news stations all over the country, as well as other national media outlets and TV shows like CBS News, ABC News and Entertainment Tonight. We wish all of the staff and patients a very Merry Christmas!
