FORT WORTH (CBSDFW.COM) — There are little North Texans who will be too sick to go trick-or-treating door-to-door this year, but MedStar is looking to help a few.
MedStar Mobile Healthcare is again accepting nominations for children to get a chance to have an ambulance escort them out for a night of Halloween fun.

The child will be picked up at home and taken to a specially selected neighborhood — in a fully decorated MedStar ambulance. The child and their family will be escorted on a stretcher, with full medical support, until their goody bag is full.
