Nurses and doctors at Children's Hospital Los Angeles are using so-called "Bat-O-Grams" to help make Halloween a holiday their patients don't have to miss.
Here's how it works: Simply visit www.Chla.org/halloween to choose your Halloween card and write your message.
CHLA staffers will print out your card and hand deliver it to a sick child spending the holiday at the hospital.
Friday is Halloween and the deadline to participate.
The hospital has offered similar services for other holidays, including Valentine's Day.
