A little while ago we received this invitation of the wonderful David Foster Foundation for this wonderful Charity Event.
Sebastien at about 2 1/2 years old was very fortunate to meet David Foster and his lovely family and spent some time playing with his lovely daughters. We had prepared a little scrapbook to thank David Foster and his family for being such an Angel and supporting our long journey away from home. I still remember Sebastien sitting and rolling little balls back and forth to his kids. During this private function for a few families from the hospital I will never forget how nervous I was as I just wanted to thank him and his wonderful Foundation for taking the courage to support families like us during this most difficult times so that my husband could come and see us and be with us and be at my side during the most difficult moments that we had to challenge with our son. What struck me the most was when David Foster welcomed all the families and said: ” I am here today with my little family and I want my family to meet you all, experience and learn what difficulties you face each day you wake up here at Sick Kids, the long days, the worries, I want my children to understand that when life is just so difficult due to health issues of a young child, we who are doing well and healthy NEED to be there to give a helping hand. We need to help those families to be still a family when their child gets better, we need to help them keep their home so when they are done their treatments they can return to a home that was theirs before the left for those treatments. We need to help!”
In the video you will see the last years Event in Toronto where they raised 3 Million Dollars to help families in need. Right after the video is done just click the x on the bottom right of the video and you will get to the official Site and each few second there will be a picture of a family and voila also Sebastien will be there with us smiling from his hospital bed as he was just a few days after his major surgery and me, the day before our sweet Genevieve was born. Enjoy!
