The Sensitive Santa

This holiday season, there have been several Santa sightings at malls across Northeast Ohio. Children are lured by the tinsel and toys, the elves the bells... mommy, daddy, can I please tell Santa what I want for Christmas? But there are some children who don't get that opportunity. They may have physical or cognitive disabilities and find the whole scene pretty tough or impossible to navigate. That's why last weekend, St. Nick pulled up his sleigh at Cincinnati's Children's Hospital to meet with kids there as part of a program they call "sensitive santa." He joins us on the line now. Good morning Santa, and happy holidays.
