Christmas Comes Early at Bethesda

Christmas came early for some young patients in the Pediatrics ward at Bethesda Hospital. It was all thanks to some caring Muskingum County Sheriff’s Deputies. Lieutenant Mark Ross and Deputy Chris Mehl – who work the midnight shift – stopped by early this morning to deliver stuffed animals to the children who are hospitalized and children in the emergency room waiting area. Ross says it’s all in the spirit of Christmas. This is the first year for the gifts and he hopes it becomes an annual event.
