SAN ANTONIO – The holidays are always tough when you are a child who is in the hospital.
From the tiniest patients in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) to adolescent patients, the team at The Children’s Hospital of San Antonio works tirelessly to ensure that the holidays are extra special for all of its patients.

Donated toys and gifts are used throughout the hospital for patients varying in age and diagnosis.
