A hospital dresses babies admitted with Christmas sweaters woven by nurses, and they look so adorable

There are many premature babies and sick children who, unfortunately, must spend these Christmas holidays in the hospital. For many of them it will be their first Christmas, although sadly they will not be able to live them in the festive and home environment that their families would like.

In these cases, the medical staff turns to the children and their parents, decorating corridors and rooms, singing carols to the children or disguising the babies admitted so that their families can have a Colorful, cheerful and emotional memory of his first Christmas.

Bring the magic of Christmas to admitted babies and their families

For the fourth consecutive year, the medical staff of the Magee-Womens Hospital of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (United States), has decided celebrate Christmas in a very special way: weaving fun and colorful clothes for babies admitted, in order to show their love and lift their spirits to their families.

Caitlin Pechin, has been the nurse responsible for knitting the sweaters and hats that hospitalized babies have dressed. Each of the pieces is made with great care and dedication, and all have cheerful colors or Christmas prints.

The clothes were given to the parents of the babies admitted to an emotional Christmas party that the nurses had been organizing on their days off. The halls were decorated and the nursing director dressed up as Santa Claus so that, despite the circumstances, families could feel the magic of Christmas up close.

"Some of these families are going through a hard time in their lives, but it is very gratifying to be able to help them in this special and emotional way disguising their babies and providing a touch of color and affection" - explained Caitlin Pechin

The hospital posted on its Facebook account the photographs of babies dressed in Christmas sweaters, and in a short time the images were filled with emotional comments and thanks for the human work done. And sometimes, the simplest gestures can leave an important mark on the hearts of others.
