West Virginia Family Donates iPads To Morgantown Hospital To Help Other Families Stay In Touch

By: KDKA-TV News Staff

MORGANTOWN (KDKA) - A West Virginia family lost their father to COVID-19 last fall and like so many others, they were unable to see him or be by his side.

With that in mind, they want to make sure other families don't go through that same scenario.

They have since donated iPads and Android tablets to the Mon Health Medical Center in Morgantown.

The family says that they will help other families stay connected while staying apart.

They believe when patients are able to see and hear their loved ones, it gives them the will to fight the virus.
