QEH’S paediatric patients and siblings treated
Article by January 14, 2021
Patients in the Paediatric Ward of the QEH had at least two reasons to smile over the Christmas holiday.
First, they were treated to an unexpected gift of toys from New York. Additionally, toys were also donated to their siblings.
Furthermore, three teen patients, with severe forms of cancer, two boys and a girl, had their special wishes met.
All of this came out of quick and solid response by Barbadian associations and individuals in New York in response to a call from Consul General Mackie Holder to bring some cheer to children in Barbados who were likely to be left out at Christmas.
