My Sick Kids Story

Sunday 1st Feb
When my eldest was about 5 or 6, we got a call from his nanny that he had fallen and seriously hurt his arm, and that the ambulance decided to take him down to Sick Kids rather than the hospital near our home. They said something like, “that’s where I’d want him to be if he were my kid.”

I rushed over to the hospital and caught up with them in emergency just as they were arriving. Poor kid was clearly in a lot of pain, but still in good spirits after a “fun” ambulance ride (sirens, how exciting!).

He was seen right away, and in addition to pain relief, they brought him a little teddy bear, who was immediately named “Bear” and brought him great joy.

He ended up needing surgery and staying overnight. He was put in a private room where I had a cot to sleep with him. He went home the next day, recovered nicely, and Bear remained his constant companion.

Years later, I still have Bear, and he will always remind me of how good Sick Kids were to us. They knew exactly what we needed well before we did, and went above and beyond to take care of us all.

Thank you to my Donors
