Did you know that Royal Columbian provides critical care to patients from across BC…

Patients like Evan Lewins, born at 26 weeks, and Lydia Christley, born at 24 weeks, who both spent time in Royal Columbian’s NICU. When they went into premature labour, both Evan’s and Lydia’s mothers were flown by helicopter to Royal Columbian – Brittany Lewins from Prince George and Madylon Christley from Kelowna. Both women received support from the Foundation for things like hotel stays, gas and groceries, and breast pumps.

Madylon says, “[My husband] and I were overwhelmed with gratitude. To know that there were people who cared enough about us to offer this support meant so much. They were totally in tune with what we needed. I have no words.”

When you play, our patients win:

Like Marcus Burry, who was born extremely prematurely at 24 weeks and 4 days and weighing just 755 grams at birth.

Marcus was delivered by emergency C-section and immediately placed in the care of Royal Columbian’s Variety Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), one of the only Level 3 NICUs in the province, providing care to the smallest and most vulnerable patients, including “micro preemies” like Marcus. He remained there for more than 4 months.

During his stay in the NICU, Marcus survived a number of complications, and after 132 days in care, he was finally healthy enough to go home to Surrey.

His mother, Makayla, is grateful to have him home and see him thriving. “Some days you feel like you’re going to be there forever, and it’s never going to end,” she says. “But, there is a light at the end of the tunnel.”

Your lottery purchase helps support the exceptional care that Royal Columbian’s NICU provides throughout the Fraser Health region.

When you play, our patients win:

Like Dave Castle, who received life-saving care from Royal Columbian’s 24/7 acute stroke team.

The 73-year-old was at work at his barbershop when he began to feel wobbly. He was rushed to Royal Columbian, where the acute stroke team performed an emergency thrombectomy to remove the clot in his brain.

A few weeks later, Dave received follow-up treatment to place a metal stent that would prevent the artery from closing again and causing another stroke. Royal Columbian is one of only a small number of hospitals in the province with the capability to perform these procedures. 

Donors to the Foundation have since added to the technology by funding some artificial intelligence software that assists the medical team in the patient’s initial diagnosis.

Just weeks after his stroke, Dave was back at work in his barbershop and said he feels great.
