If wishes had wheels:
NASCAR driver visits MGH

Excited smiles from a group of enthusiastic young car buffs greeted NASCAR driver Doug Hearst Dec. 7. Hearst, who competes on the New England racing circuit and has worked closely with the MGH Blood Donor Center in past charitable efforts, visited MassGeneral Hospital for Children patients on Ellison 17 and 18. Some patients made the trip outside to view and sit in Hearst's race car, while others received T-shirts and posed for photos.
