Kiera	245	Kiera	I was admitted early on July 7 due to an anaphylactic allergy. During my time there I encountered many amazing people who made my time there less terrifying. I want to thank each of the nurses who positively impacted me and I want to send big thanks to Alyssa in the PICU, Tanessa the c-con nurse, and Maddy on my med team. They are true angels.	21/08/2023 7:25:03 AM
Anonymous	244	Anonymous	It's thankfully my first time taking a kid to the emergency room and I had such a great experience. The volunteer who came to play with my 3 year old was such a perfect support. The doctor was thorough and anticipated the questions I would have before discharging us (I remember he introduced himself to my daughter as Brendan).	25/07/2023 4:14:04 AM
Lisa	243	Lisa	Just wanted to say a big thank you to the staff at BC Children's Hospital. I brought my 10 month old daughter in this past weekend and the level of care and service that was provided to us was beyond excellent. The nurses and the doctors were absolutely amazing.	13/07/2023 1:26:52 AM
Anonymous	240	Anonymous	Thank you to the staff at BC Children’s (Emergency and Endocrinology units) for the attentive care of my son two days ago. Beyond that, at every visit with either of my kids, everyone has always provided kind care to all of us. We are very grateful for all the support and health care that you give to us.	01/06/2023 8:06:53 PM
Cindy	239	Cindy	Lisa (Child Life)… where do I start. She’s been with us from day one and is just a genuine soul with the love and care you'd need or want with someone working with children. She had all the tricks up her sleeve, a smile that Lucy responded to every time, and a sense of humour that Lucy might have thought was a bit “Dad” jokey – but worked for me. A true gem. So grateful!	25/05/2023 11:44:30 PM
George	237	George	This is a thank you from 2017, I was 14 and had a horribly complicated appendicitis that I arrived very late to hospital for. Just a massive thank you to the team that saved my life. I am now 19 and studying to be a doctor and none of that would have been possible without you guys and I'm grateful for every extra second that I now get on this Earth!	26/04/2023 5:50:33 AM
Anonymous	236	Anonymous	Thank you for saving my life. I got surgery on my kidneys when I was a baby. My parents and my grandma were worried about me. I needed surgery right away.	17/04/2023 7:19:08 PM
Anonymous	234	Anonymous	My wife and I brought out son in last night in complete distress. Nothing would settle him down until one of the lovely volunteers, Chanel, came in with some toys and played with him. This completely changed his mood and overall gave him his smile back. She 100% made our lives manageable and so much easier in the time she spent with us. Thank you.	31/01/2023 6:07:02 PM
Ava	233	Ava	We are forever grateful to the Cardiology team & PICU staff who helped our daughter through her open-heart surgery. Special thanks to Dr. Sanatani for expertly recognizing her coarctation, Dr. Campbell for performing the surgery, and all the PICU staff who helped her recover. The staff was nurturing and attentive to both her needs and the needs of her very nervous new parents.	19/01/2023 10:59:18 PM
