A heartwarming visit at GolisanGolisano Children's Hospital of Southwest Florida ☀️
Firefighter Danny Garcia made a special appearance by rappelling down the side of the hospital and stopping at the window to wave and show support to a brave young patient and their family.
Afterwards, members from Squad 73 (A-shift), our battalion chief, and community relations specialist, along with members of Lee County Sheriff’s Office SWAT team, delivered lunch to the family, with a little help from Robo Dog! Talk about a unique lunch delivery!
We also brought some fire and LCSO goodies for the pediatric patient while spending time with the family.
A huge thank you to Golisano Children's Hospital for allowing us to share such a special moment with this amazing family. It was truly an honor! 💙 ... See MoreSee Less
