Superheroes wash windows at San Diego Children’s Hospital

Captain America, The Hulk and Spider-Man gave the villains a break and focused on cleaning glass and surprise the sick kids


Employees from A Plus Window Cleaning in San Diego once again brought smiles to the patients at Rady Children’s Hospital by washing the facility’s windows decked out in superhero costumes, according to an article on the 7San Diego website.

 

Captain America, The Hulk and Spider-Man gave the villains a break on Halloween and focused on cleaning glass and surprise the sick kids.

 

For the past four years, Dennis Dwyer, owner of A Plus, went the extra mile to cheer up tiny patients on a day when most kids get to put on costumes and go trick-or-treating.

 

For instance, Two-year-old patient Zachariah face lit up when he came outside to see the superheroes in action, the article said.  Zachariah was scheduled to undergo surgery to remove a mass in his throat

 

Dwyer, dressed as Captain America, said he still gets choked up when he sees the reaction from children at the hospital.
