416 children are undergoing treatment there, together with 152 mothers. At the same time, visiting many departments is now prohibited. Hundreds of children will spend New Year's Eve in the hospital, so public organizations of the region and the city, together with volunteers, initiated a congratulatory action. The street area of the hospital complex became an improvised scene for Santa Claus and the participants. Children also took seats at the windows. And the brightest moment of congratulations was the launch of balloons into the sky.
Gleb Mironov, volunteer, student of Gomel State Medical College: "I am a sociable open person. And I think that you need to give more energy and happiness. You are more filled, indeed, when you give something."
Vyacheslav Izhakovsky, head physician of Gomel Regional Children's Hospital: "The hospital operates around the clock and today and tomorrow and on all holidays we will provide medical assistance. We are grateful to all caring people. Of course, the children are inspired. And the positive mood of children certainly improves their health."
