For six-year-old Aimee and her mother, the plan was to celebrate Christmas with loved ones, but it didn’t happen. Aimee suddenly developed a high fever and contracted an infection so they had to go inside.
At Mälarsjukhuset in Eskilstuna, it is an annual tradition that the children who are forced to spend Christmas in the hospital receive a Christmas present from Santa and firefighters.
– It feels very nice to come up and share this joy, says firefighter Adam Tolén.
Even children who are sitting in the rooms with various infections and who could not come out and receive the Christmas present received a greeting.
