seattlechildrens “The joyful sound of caroling echoed through the hospital halls and Odessa Brown Children’s Clinic thanks to two very special visitors, @Ciara alongside her and @dangerusswilson’s new music artist @deandre408. They handed out toys and gift cards to patients and families and delighted them with classic holiday songs. . “I’m so grateful we got to come and sing for you all today,” Ciara said. “We believe in you and we’re rooting for you,” she added. . In the hospital playroom, patients and families were overjoyed with some singing along at the top of their lungs with huge smiles, and others happily dancing. . “It was such a special gift,” Brooke said. She smiled at her 6-month-old son, Tristan, as his father held him and rocked him to the music. Their current stay at the hospital has been about 3 months. . Tristan was all smiles as Ciara and DeAndre sang. It was a welcome reprieve. . Walking through the halls of the inpatient units, Ciara and DeAndre stopped to sing songs to patients and families. . When 10-year-old Sierra saw Ciara, her face lit up with joy. . “Sierra loves music,” her mom said. “It was heartwarming to see Ciara and hear her beautiful music. It really brightened Sierra’s day.” . Sierra and her mom moved to Seattle from North Pole, Alaska more than 3 years ago. Now, they call Seattle Children’s their second home. . After caroling at the hospital, Ciara and DeAndre traveled across town to OBCC, a community clinic of Seattle Children’s located in the Central District, where they handed out @Amazon Fire HD 8s, gift cards and toys. They then sang carols for all the families, with one little girl sitting on Ciara’s lap, a big smile on her face as she swayed to the music. . One-year-old Amir was beaming as Ciara held him in her arms. . “She stole his heart,” his mom said. . When she was a little girl, she had been a patient at OBCC. She said the neighborhood clinic is like family. She loves that her son is a patient and will grow up around the same providers who cared for her. . “It’s wonderful to have Ciara interact with the kids and share her love with the community. It’s great to have her here and a part of our family,” she said.” 📸: @west2eastempire
