COLUMBUS, Ohio — Cancer patients across all OhioHealth hospitals are getting holiday cards, from you!
If you visited Wildlights at the Columbus Zoo, you may have noticed an opportunity to create a card for a cancer patient.
On Tuesday, the first batch of cards was delivered to patients like Kelsey Durst. Durst is battling stage four breast cancer. She was diagnosed in October of 2020. She said the timing of these cards is significant because she undergoes surgery Wednesday.
"I could just lay in bed all day and you get this card from someone who doesn't even know you,” she said. “They are just so uplifting and they make your whole day. It makes you want to get up out of bed and do something."
You can still send a card. OhioHealth is taking cards all season long, all you have to do is stop by the Columbus Zoo.
