During construction of the Brenda Fareri Pavilion, ironworkers noticed young patients at Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital watching from their windows. Wanting to lift their spirits, the ironworkers wrote heartfelt notes across steel beams like “Get Well Soon,” “Stay Strong,” and “We Love You.”
What started as a small gesture quickly grew into something much bigger: a reminder that kindness and compassion are as essential to healing as world-class care. This heartwarming story was featured on PIX11 News, highlighting how love and optimism are being built into the very foundation of the newest building rising on the Westchester Medical Center campus in Valhalla.
