Santa and his elves rappel down windows at San Antonio hospital
SAN ANTONIO โ With wide eyes and joyous smiles all around, pediatric patients at Methodist Childrenโs Hospital got a special visit Friday from Santa and his elves. To make sure everyone was at a safe distance, Santa rappelled down the sides of the hospital and met with the kids through their windows. This socially-distanced visit from Santa and his elves really boosted the childrenโs holiday spirits, according to Whitlock. โIt brought our spirits up a lot knowing they could see Santa, even though Santa couldnโt come in and see them. They were still able to experience this either outside their windows or on the hospital televisions,โ she said.
